Plant Families: Balsaminaceae and Berberidaceae
In my younger days, when I was a wildflower tenderoni and didn‘t know much, I called Jewelweed “Exlpodable Pod Plant”. If you don’t why, wrap your hand around the seed pod of one of these plants, being careful not to touch it until you have completely enclosed it. Pow! These two species account for the majority of the Touch-me-not family in North America. The Barberry Family, a little larger than the Touch-me-not Family with 9 genera and about 600 species, provides us some of our spring wildflowers.

Seed dispersal
Species that survive are species that reproduce and spread. Plants can't walk, so in order to spread, flowering plants need ways to get their seeds to new locations.

The Natural Garden That Isn't
Once gardeners interject themselves into the greenery the so-called natural garden is no longer natural. But it can still be a rewarding way to plant, if you're willing to work side by side with Ma Nature - who may have a few ideas of her own.
