RE: My Parent's Australian Native Garden

in HiveGarden7 months ago

So true yes! I agree 100%. We have forest areas where they previously grew trees for logging and paper and whatever other reasons they used the trees for. But now they are competing with native plants, and this is sad and unnecessary. Wild spaces are getting so small and secluded, that the few we still have should not be invaded by alien species. But in urban areas, the ground and soil are probably not native as well. Funny thing, the indigenous plants (like proteas) struggle in my garden because it is not the right type of soil; so people brought in different soil to plant their gardens.
