05-28-26. This post is a little derivative. I grew natives for Lincoln ecosystem but also grew some for Northern Minnesota too. They tolerated a long drive nearly to the Canadian 🇨🇦 border! I have been getting educated on which plants should and should not be here and will try to steward it as responsibly as I can. I have been planting seedlings here for several years and will see how they are doing later on a hike. 🌱 (Water lily was torn up by a critter or a storm. I am going to give it a home in a self-contained water garden.)
