Beating a Dead Horse to Hamburger
Gardening is a grand and glorious adventure, and I can’t think of a better way to learn about the environment. Filling the yard with ornamentals is like Van Gogh splashing bold brushstrokes of color across a canvas, and many of these non-native beauties <I>do</I> provide a nectar source for butterflies – back in Ohio you could always find several potted Lantanas scattered about, providing color and nectar. But focusing on native species contributes to the health of your local environment, and encourages wildlife to visit your yard.

2003: A Season of California Wildflowers - Yosemite, San Bernadino Mts, Kernville
While my wife and I were settling in in southern California, winter was dropping just the right amount of moisture on places that would respond with explosions of rainbows. In April, after visiting many of the same areas more than once, we traveled further north, up to the western side of Yosemite. Though we got snowed on, the lower elevations were in bloom.

Plant Families: Asclepiadaceae - Milkweed!
Milkweeds are generally known for three things: a) they are the sole food source for Monarch butterfly larvae. b) They have a thick, milky sap and little parachutes attached to each and every seed in alien-looking pods. c) They do not fit into the scheme of the perfectly manicured, tidy, unnatural golf courses suburbanites call lawns and gardens and thus are the enemy. Exterminate! Eradicate! Destroy, destroy, destroy!!!

Unfamiliar Cousins
We’re all familiar with bright orange California poppies, whether we live in California, or have grown them in our back yard back east. The same is true for the many types of <I>Salvia</I>; we’re all familiar with the aromatic Sage we use in our cooking, as well as the many bedding varieties. And as for milkweed, well forget about it. Milkweed is either an annoying weed that ruins the flow of your lawn (and shame on you for feeling like that), or it is must-have treasure in the butterfly garden. But ya know, sometimes the fruit falls a little further from the tree; each of these familiar faces has a cousin or two that is, if not a secret, then certainly something the family doesn’t talk about.
