This week, Jeff and Jonathan celebrate the bountiful dandelions flourishing in Southcentral Alaska, prompting an important question: where do they originate?
They discuss how attitudes towards dandelions have evolved over the years and explore strategies to prevent their overgrowth.
Next, they share tips on introducing native plants to your yard, garden, or meadow, including optimal planting locations and conditions for their growth. For those in northern climates, Jeff recommends the book, 'Wildflowers for Northern Gardens.'
