Using native prairie plants in the home landscape VOL. 10 • NO. 23

Illinois is known as the “Prairie State” and has several native prairie plants. These plants are good options to include in the landscape because they evolved with the climate, soils, and pathogens in this habitat for thousands of years.

Native prairie plant species have advantages: • Extensive root systems make prairie plants resistant to drought and dry conditions.

• Native prairie plants can reduce soil erosion.

• Prairie plants have few insect and disease problems.

• Once they’re established, prairie plants need minimum maintenance.

• Prairie plants provide habitat for birds and other grassland animals.

• Several native plants, such as milkweeds are necessary for native insects.

• Using native plants can cut down on exotic invaders to gardens.

Prairie plants are best planted in the spring. Late fall is the best time to sow prairie plant seeds directly.

You can purchase native plant species from reputable local nurseries or catalogs. Usually, plants from a local source are adapted to your area. Avoid digging native plants from the wild.

PUBLISHED BY ROCK VALLEY PUBLISHING, LLC

While there are many noteworthy prairie plants, some favorites include prairie dropseed, little bluestem and purple prairie clover.

Prairie dropseed (Sporobolus heterolepsis), also called northern dropseed, is a clump-forming, warm-season native grass. The graceful arching leaves give the plant a fountain-like appearance.

Prairie dropseed is a very good native grass for the landscape as it will tolerate a wide range of soils, including clay. Full height of the plant in flower is 2 to 3 feet and spread is 2 to 3 feet across.

In late summer, open-airy flower heads appear on thin stems which rise above the clump of foliage.

Pink and brown-tinted flowers are borne in sparse clumps at the end of the stem. The foliage turns golden with orange hues in the fall, fading to light bronze in the winter. The plant gets its name from the tiny rounded seeds, which drop to the ground in autumn when mature.

Little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium) has bluish stems that change from orange to russet red color throughout the fall and winter. Little bluestem’s common name refers to the bluish coloration at the base of the stem. It reaches a height of 2 to 4 feet and has a dense root system which may reach 5 to 8 feet deep.

heads are produced in late summer on arching stems.

Purple prairie clover (Dale purpurea) is a slender plant that grows up to 2-feet tall. In June and July, purple thimble-like flowers are produced at the ends of the stems.

The Illinois Department of Natural Resources publication Prairie Establishment and Landscaping by William E. McClain has a list of sources for native Illinois prairie plant seeds.

Lawmakers returning to Springfield for session State budget among top items to be considered

By Peter Hancock CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS

Illinois lawmakers returned to Springfield last week for the first time in more than two months to take up a state budget and other critical matters while following strict social distancing and public safety guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic.

During teleconference caucus meetings May 13, House and Senate Democrats were told the special session would run from Wednesday, May 20, through Friday, May 22.

Before returning to the capital, lawmakers are being asked to sign a pledge stipulating they will be tested for COVID-19, regardless

of whether they have symptoms or have been previously infected. They will also be required to wear face coverings, undergo temperature checks on session days, travel alone and stay in separate hotel rooms, follow social distancing guidelines and avoid extracurricular activities.

The House was scheduled to meet in the Bank of Springfield Center, a convention center a few blocks from the Statehouse. The Senate plans to meet in the Senate chamber of the Capitol.

Security at the BoS Center was be provided by the Illinois State Police and all people entering the building were required to pass through a metal detector to prevent weapons

from being carried into the facility. All people were also required to wear face coverings and submit to a touchless temperature check. Anyone with a temperature of more than 100 degrees was required to leave.

The House recommended that lawmakers and staff who are at risk of serious illness from COVID-19—people over age 65 or with pre-existing conditions—consider not traveling to Springfield for the special session.

Senate President Don Harmon, D-Oak Park, said in a statement prior to the session that the upper chamber was still working on the logistics of how it would meet, but he said senators are ready to get to work.

“Time and again the Illinois Senate has shown its members can work together to solve problems and produce results for the people of this great state,” Harmon said.

“That cooperative spirit of bipartisan achievement is needed now more than ever. This global pandemic has decimated our state and local economies regardless of political affiliation. From far flung living rooms, kitchen tables and home offices, senators have been working together while apart to figure out what we can and need to do now.”

Lawmakers have not met since March 5. They were scheduled to be off the week of March 9-13 to campaign in advance of the March 17 primary. They were also scheduled to take a two-week spring break April 6-17. All other session days since then have been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lawmakers have been meeting remotely in informal “working groups” during the shutdown, mainly to gather information they will need when they return to session, but those working groups were not authorized to draft legislation or hear testimony on bills.

Much of the work ahead is expected to focus on passing a state budget in light of a severe drop in revenues that has resulted from the closure of nonessential businesses, a statewide stay-at-home order and the delay in the state’s tax filing deadline.

Newly revised estimates from the Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability, or CoGFA, project that total revenues for the current fiscal year, which ends June 30, will be about $2.2 billion lower than the previous estimate released in March. Net income taxes are expected to be $1.7 billion lower than the March estimate.

Revenues for the upcoming fiscal year, which begins July 1, are expected to be $4.7 billion lower than previously estimated.

The state has the ability to borrow money from other funds to shore up the general revenue fund. Officials also will be watching closely to see if the U.S. Congress approves any federal aid for states.

Despite the falloff in revenue, Gov. JB Pritzker has said he wants lawmakers to pass a COVID-19 financial relief bill that will specifically target small businesses that have been unable to access federal relief funds.

“Obviously, as I’ve said for some

time now, we have real challenges with the loss of revenue because of COVID-19,” Pritzker said during his daily briefing May 13 in Chicago, “so we need to rely upon the federal government and its support for all the states in order for us to provide the services that people need, in order to pay for the education that our kids need and for us to support our businesses and our families in the wake of this curve as we’re dealing with this COVID-19 crisis.”

Meanwhile, many legislative Republicans have been calling for weeks to reconvene the session, arguing the governor has no legal authority to extend the disaster declaration beyond the original 30-day time frame, and they hope to put the governor’s authority up for a vote.

“I am pleased the governor and Democratic leaders have heeded our calls to return to the people’s Capitol to address the critical issues facing our state during these unprecedented times,” Senate Minority Leader Bill Brady, of Bloomington, said in a statement. “It is vital the Legislature be a part of the decision-making process when it comes to maintaining the public’s health, reopening our state, moving our economy forward and overcoming a graduated income tax that would negatively impact Illinois families.”

House Minority Leader Jim Durkin, of Western Springs, also issued a statement welcoming a special session.

“After two months of inaction, it is about time we get back to the job we were elected to do,” he said.

Here to Help During COVID-19

A 41-year-old McHenry man has died and a 56-year-old McHenry man and a 42-year-old Chicago man were hospitalized as a result of a two vehicle crash that occurred Monday afternoon, May 18. The crash occurred in the 11500 block of Vanderkarr Road, unincorporated Hebron.

On May 18 at 2:29 p.m., the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office, Hebron Alden Fire Protection District, Richmond Fire Protection District, Wonder Lake Fire Protection District, Woodstock Fire Rescue, and Harvard Fire Protection District responded to a two vehicle crash involving a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee and a 2003 Chevrolet 3500 Cargo Van that crashed on Vanderkarr Road, west of Kemman Road.

The scene investigation indicated the Jeep, driven by William P. Bishop, had been traveling westbound on Vanderkarr Road and for unknown reasons the Jeep failed to stay within its lane of traffic. The Jeep continued westbound into the eastbound lane of traffic and onto the eastbound shoulder where it struck the front of an eastbound Chevrolet.

The driver of the Chevrolet was pronounced deceased at the scene.

The passenger of the Chevrolet was transported to an area hospital with life-threatening injuries. Bishop was transported to an area hospital with serious injuries.

Drivers of each vehicle were wearing their seatbelts. The passenger in the Chevrolet was not wearing his

seatbelt at the time of the crash. Airbags did deploy in both vehicles. The area of the roadway was closed for approximately three hours. Weather was not believed to be a contributing factor to the crash.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Major Crash Investigation Unit and the McHenry County Coroner’s Office. As of press time, toxicology reports were pending.

Bishop was charged with Improper Lane Usage-Petty Offense and is due in court on July 14.

The charges against this individual are merely allegations against him.

All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.

Tips for using a grocery delivery service

Landscaped backyards with trees and shrubs, houses with decks, porches, attics and chimneys; as well as urban green spaces with ponds, fields and wetlands have created ideal habitats for wildlife.

It is not uncommon to find higher densities of certain species (like raccoons) in urban areas as opposed to rural areas.

The following guidelines can help our human and wild animal populations coexist: Restrict their food sources Anything edible left unattended is an attractant to critters. Bird feeders, by day, also attract raccoons, mice and voles by night. Place trash in a can with a tight fitting lid, stored in a garage or shed to prevent access.

Garbage in bags should be put out the morning of garbage day, not the night before. Pet food should be available only when the pet is present. Remove fallen fruit from yard.

Never intentionally feed wild mammals. It is actually illegal to feed deer in Illinois.

Secure possible entry points/repair holes To prevent the possibility of wildlife utilizing your home as theirs, all outside holes must be covered with ¼″ heavy gauge wire (on vents) or aluminum flashing to prevent entry.

Fan vents, dryer vents and chimneys, all possible entry points, need to be secured. Check under the shingles by the gutters for possible gaps and cover them with wire. If water has rotted wooden boards, replace

them. All holes larger than ¼″ need to be sealed to keep critters out.

Use deterrents Long streamers work as deterrents to frighten woodpeckers away; spread ammonia-soaked rags or sprinkle hot pepper juice with a few drops of dish soap and spray the problem areas; keep chimney damper closed; use bright lights and loud radios in attics.

Finding an injured animal If you come across an animal you believe needs help, the first question to ask is: “Is this animal sick or injured?” The following are signs of illness or injury: blood, torn skin, missing fur, exposed bone, a limb or wing not working correctly (dragging, drooping, being held at a funny angle), unable to stand, continually falling over and acting lethargic (lying still even when approached by a human, not opening eyes, can’t lift head). As long as the animal is exhibiting normal behaviors, leave it be.

Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator If you find a sick or injured wild animal contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. If it is safe to do so, the animal can be placed into a container (cardboard box, paper bag with the top folded over, garbage can with lid, pet carrier, etc.) and kept in a dark, quiet place until a rehabilitator is reached. Do not offer it any food or water.

Discovering baby animals Spring and summer months often

bring baby animals into our yards or even our homes. While your first thought might be that it is orphaned, it is important to remember that some animals leave their babies for parts of the day in order to avoid attracting predators to them. Visit our page about discovering baby animals below for more information.

Relocation of wildlife First understand that the relocation of a “nuisance” animal to a “more suitable” habitat is not truly humane. Taking a raccoon from the familiar streets of a subdivision and putting it in the woods is not doing it any favors. It has no home nor knowledge of food or water supplies.

Oftentimes if an individual animal is removed, chances are another animal will move in to claim the now vacated territory. Exclusion and deterrents are better solutions for dealing with nuisance wildlife. *Please note: Wildlife trapping requires a special trapping permit from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR). Regulations exist as to what can be done with the animal once you trap it.

For example, it is illegal to relocate a raccoon off your property. Also, animals cannot be released on private or public properties without the landowner’s permission. Contact your local IDNR office for more information.

McHenry County volunteer opportunities available

McHenry County is in need of volunteers. While you’re already doing your part to slow the spread of COVID-19 by staying at home and practicing physical distancing, some of you might be looking to do more.

There are many volunteer opportunities that have arisen because of the extreme hardships caused by the unprecedented COVID-19 event. If you have the time, there are agencies out there that would be grateful for whatever help you can give.

Volunteer Center McHenry County has a comprehensive list of local agencies in search of volunteers on its website at www. volunteercentermchenrycounty.org.

The McHenry County Department of Health has set up a Volunteer Page you can reach, as well as

an online Volunteer Application that can pair you up with opportunities, based on your skills and availability.

Serve Illinois maintains a portal at serve.illinois. gov, where you find local volunteer opportunities, make a monetary donation or learn how to donate personal protective equipment (PPE) and other supplies.

replacement. This option can help you make sure you get all the items you wanted. However, a drawback can be turning back the replacement they selected for you and not getting the items on your grocery list.

Other adjustments that often happen are related to size and quantity.

Usually this is for pounds of meat or produce, especially when you’re purchasing specific amount of pounds. For example if you order 2 pounds of hamburger meat, but the package is less or more, there will be an adjustment made for the price and pounds of the meat.

Keeping it in your budget Are you tempted by the cookies, cakes and other goodies on the shelves? Shopping online and getting your groceries delivered, can help you skip all of the temptations, It can help you stay focused on buying only what you need from the store, instead of things tempting your sweet tooth.

Another way to keep your budget in check is to set a limit for the overall total price for your grocery delivery. If you need to tweak the total cost in your cart, you can play around with the items in your cart or remove items, if necessary.

Other considerations Let’s say you forget to put bananas on your list, you can communicate to your shopper while they’re shopping and ask them to grab them before they leave. It’s also good to be aware of when your shopper is picking out your groceries and then keep an eye on your smartphone or smart device if your shopper sends any messages relevant to your grocery cart.

Another consideration is to determine if you want your groceries delivered when you’re home or not. Let your shopper know if they can leave them on the doorstep or if you’ll be home so they can hand off the groceries to you at the front door.

Lastly, some services allow you to tip your shopper. You can decide to tip your shopper online via the website or the app, or you can decide if you’d like to tip your shopper in cash when they drop off your groceries.

Grocery shopping online can relieve some of the stress of shopping for food and may save you money, too. Take time to consider whether it’s a good fit for you and then consider trying it for yourself.

Raccoons and other wildlife can be found in our own backyards, and the McHenry County Conservation District says it’s best to leave them alone unless an animal appears sick or injured.

Grocery stores have started offering a variety of services to help you shop. You can choose to shop online, pay online, have the grocery items delivered to your house and/or pick up your groceries at the store. Who knew you didn’t have to trek up and down the aisles to buy groceries. Here are some options to consider when deciding between services.

Cost Many online grocery options have costs associated with the service. To help you figure out if the fees are right for you, consider how often you will use the service.

If you are a casual shopper, who only may only use a delivery service a few times year, a service that charges a fee per delivery may be more cost effective than an annual membership.

While this may cost you more for each delivery you receive, it would still be less in the short term. Be sure to read the fine print. Delivery fees vary widely depending on the service and location.

The fees can range from free with orders over a certain dollar amount (usually $35, but check with your store) to up to $9.99 per delivery.

Be sure to check stores for low cost specials or free trial offers.

For those who use the delivery service to get all their groceries or who like frequent delivery of grocery items, a service that charges an annual membership may be more cost effective. Just like the delivery fees, memberships have different price points. The average grocery delivery membership cost has a range from around $99/year to as much as $130/year. However, if you use the service a lot, this membership cost offsets the per use delivery fee.

Replace, Adjustments, Out of Stock Even on a normal grocery store day, not every item is in stock. If this happens while you are picking items online, the service may ask you to pick a different item or comparable item to replace it. However, sometimes it happens after you have already placed your order. In these cases, the person filling your order, the “shopper,” can select a replacement.

For example, if you have your favorite flavor of yogurt, but it’s not currently in stock, then the shopper can get your second favorite flavor as a replacement. Many online sites ask if you are willing to have the shopper select a similar item as a

Pritzker warns of Master Gardener Helpline open ‘consequences’ for opening early

By Jerry Nowicki CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS

On May 13, Gov. JB Pritzker warned business owners and local governments of consequences they will face if they defy his stay-athome order.

Pritzker said there are no “easy decisions” in a pandemic and said he sympathizes with local elected leaders struggling with difficult choices.

“But what I don’t have sympathy for is those so intent on disregarding science and logic, so afraid to tell their constituents what they may not want to hear—that they put more people’s lives at risk,” the governor said during a virtual news conference from his home in Chicago.

Pritzker has faced pushback from local officials across the state who are seeking to reopen sectors of their economy earlier than the May 29 date when regions can begin moving to the third phase of his reopening plan.

But, Pritzker said, those leaders were not elected “to do what’s easy,” they were elected “to do what’s right.”

He also warned of consequences for businesses that try to reopen too quickly.

“For the small minority of businesses that choose to ignore the medical doctors and the data, and to ignore your legal obligations to residents of your community, there will be consequences,” he said.

Those include revocation of licenses for those businesses and professionals licensed by the state.

“Counties that try to reopen in defiance may not be reimbursed by FEMA for damages they cause, because they ignored the law,” he said.

“Local law enforcement and the Illinois State Police can and will take action. But there is no consequence the state could impose that is greater than the harm that you will do to your own communities.”

• Consequences bills requiring legislative approval to extend his disaster proclamation, but he said all actions thus far are aimed at public health.

“I think everybody understands that what I’ve been doing is following the science and the data and doing what’s best for our economy, given that the virus is out there,” he said. “I want to remind everybody that when people get sick, and when they die, that too has an economic cost aside from the terrible cost to families and communities. There’s also an economic cost to our state when that’s happening, so take that into account when you’re suggesting that we should follow a different path.”

Hospitalization numbers remained roughly flat, with 4,563 hospitalized due to COVID-19 as of midnight May 13—1,208 of them in intensive care beds and 714 of them

on ventilators.

Pritzker also gave an update to the state’s strategy for dealing with spread at long-term care facilities.

He also said a resident of the staterun Manteno Veterans Home who had been in hospice for several months recently tested positive for the virus and died.

That facility had 30 residents of 220 and 19 employees of 307 test positive for the virus between April and May, and all residents have been tested recently. All positive residents and others contacted by them have been isolated.

He said one of 153 residents and none of the 219 staff at the LaSalle Veterans’ Home have tested positive; five of 51 residents and none of the 78 staff members at the Anna Veterans Home tested positive, although some staff tests were still pending; and there were no known

positive residents or staff at the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, although more than 200 residents and 50 staff were awaiting results.

Pritzker said the state is testing residents even at long-term care facilities that do not have positive cases of the virus, as almost half of the state’s 3,792 COVID-19-related deaths can be tied to such facilities.

“IDPH has prioritized testing at long-term care facilities and to our vulnerable populations where infection is more likely to lead higher severity cases, especially amongst communities of color,” he said.

Those at state-run veterans homes face the same precautions as all long-term care facilities in Illinois, he said.

Since March 5, all visitors and staff have been screened before entry into the home, and by March 10 all vendors were barred from visit-

business, such as nursing homes,” he said. “Having state government fulfill each individual request would not be efficient, or in any way, manageable.”

Still, he said, the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and IDPH have coordinated an effort to directly deliver PPE to more than 1,200 nursing homes and other longterm care facilities across the state.

Those shipments began on April 30 and have reached more than 85 percent of the facilities.

U of I webinar for restaurant businesses Local eateries, restaurants, cafes, pubs and coffee shops are the social and economic lifeblood of many Illinois communities.
