By Nathan Riggs

October in Texas marks the time when the Monarch butteries are passing through on their fall migration to Mexico. You may ďŹ nd them resting in trees overnight and may number in the tens or more. Some of the butteries could have white circular tags on their wings and are being tracked by monitoring groups.

Monarch buttery populations have taken a beating in recent years. Deforestation in their winter hibernation grounds far up in the mountains near Michoacån Mexico and reduction in wildowers and milkweeds due to drought have reduced their numbers. Known as much for their spring and fall migrations as their beauty, monarchs need access to nectar plants and larval food plants in the spring migration northward and access to nectar plants during the fall migration in order for survival and reproduction.

A local source of information on Monarch buttery news, migrations and monitoring is the Texas Buttery Ranch at http://www.texasbutteryranch.com. You can also sign up for their e-newsletter to stay up-to-date on the latest Monarch news.

For some great pictures of Monarch butteries, milkweeds and their migration pathways, check out the Monarch photo gallery on the GardenStyle San Antonio website at http://www.gardenstylesanantonio.com/galleriesslideshow/monarch-butteries-great-migrators-insect-world/.

Guerrilla Gardening Courtesy of Emily Weiner, Trinity Glen Rose Groundwater Conservation District

Seed balls are an easy means of distributing a variety of seeds in what some refer to as “guerrilla gardening”.

Simply put, clay, compost, seeds and water come together to form a perfect delivery system for reintroducing native plants to your yard, that vacant lot in the neighborhood, or even ditches and roadsides! The clay helps to protect the seeds from birds and other critters. Once rains break down the clay, the compost provides a bit of growing medium for the germinating seeds, allowing the plants to reach their full potential!

For our purposes, we used a 2-cup measure for the proportions, but unless you are planning on rolling several hundred seed balls you want to use a smaller amount. The basic recipe is: • 1 part native seeds (wildflower or grass) [Native American Seed is a wonderful resource for native seeds and you can order online at www.seedsource.com. Of course, you can also harvest wildflower seed from your yard or public areas.

• 2 parts fine compost

• 5 parts powdered Redart, or terracotta clay (The clay can be found at any clay supply shop) • 1 part water Mix the dry ingredients in a bucket with your hands. Slowly add water a little at a time, continuing to mix until mixture is sticky. Pinch off small pieces of the mixture and roll it between your palms until it holds together well and begins to set up, or harden. Place seed balls onto a tarp and allow them to dry 24 to 48 hours. Once dry, they are ready for broadcasting or short-term storage.

It is important to keep the seed balls on the small side (approximately ½“- ¾“ in diameter). Too many seeds per ball can result in too much competition amongst the seeds for survival. Just as important is to distribute the seed balls at the right time of year. Rain is required for the clay to melt away and allow the seeds to germinate. For those of us in the beautiful, but often dry, Hill Country, this means sowing your seed balls during fall or winter will give them the best shot at receiving the rain they need.

A Rose by Any Other Nameâ&#x20AC;Ś

By Mark A. Peterson

In our Water Saver Landscape coupon program, we often include Earth-Kind roses as eligible species to include. Several coupon recipients and one or two nurseries have asked us to explain why.

All of our eligible species are intended to grow with limited discretionary supplemental water. Earth-Kind roses are perfect examples and to understand why we include Earth-Kind roses it helps to know a little bit about the concept of Earth-Kind.

Earth-Kind is a philosophy of maximizing garden and landscape enjoyment while minimizing fertilizer, pesticide and water use in the landscape. The goal of Earth-Kind landscaping is to combine the best of organic and traditional gardening and landscape principles to create a truly sustainable environment.

https://www.facebook.com/StoneOakLostFoundPets Using this concept, Earth-Kind roses are selected, after many ďŹ eld trials and much research, for their resistance to pests and the ability to grow and thrive with minimum inputs of fertilizer, pesticide and water. A team of experts intensively studies each rose cultivar before adding it to the Earth-Kind family.

New Construction â&#x20AC;˘ Remodel Room Additions Decks Windows & Doors No Project Too Small!

Let us know about any project you might be considering, we will be happy to provide a Free Estimate.

Timberwood Park Resident

Justin Morgan (210) 846-2544 #MBODP 3E 4UF t 4BO "OUPOJP 59 Stone Oak - October 2015 - Vol 20 No 10

SAWS shares the philosophy of minimal landscape inputs with respect to our WaterSaver Landscape Coupon program. The goal of our coupon programs is to encourage the use of plants that do not require water, fertilizer, pesticide or extensive pruning. EarthKind roses meet all of this and more, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why we include them in most every seasonal package.

All Earth-Kind roses are eligible for our coupon programs, but the following are my favorites: Marie Daly â&#x20AC;&#x201C; dwarf shrub Belindaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dream â&#x20AC;&#x201C; medium shrub Carefree Beauty â&#x20AC;&#x201C; medium shrub Ducher â&#x20AC;&#x201C; medium shrub Georgetown Tea â&#x20AC;&#x201C; medium shrub Knock Out â&#x20AC;&#x201C; medium shrub New Dawn â&#x20AC;&#x201C; vigorous climber Use Earth-Kind roses often for a hardy, colorful and fragrant landscape that will please all your senses.

Personally, I believe you never can have enough roses in your landscape. ŠNeighborhood News, Inc. PAGE 17
