I've got this low area in my yard by the sidewalk that gathers rainwater that flows off mine and my neighbor's roof. I'd like to remove the corner triangle of grass and add some plants here that can help filter the runoff before it gets to the drain. Looking around what they've done at the Beaverdam Reservoir it seems like some clumping native grasses could be good. But I'd also like some layering. Any suggestions for plants that like getting flooded in the rain?

love seeing thimbleweed out in the wild. such a cool little plant

Does anyone know what plant this is? It popped up in my garden. It looks like a fern but I don’t think it is. Is it a keeper or something to remove?

I have had a chip drop sitting in my driveway since November. The temps are in the 90s all next week so perfect time to kill some bermuda grass. I am still keeping a 6 foot grass buffer zone between my yard and my neighbors. Hes a lawn guy so I dont want to risk anything getting sprayed.

On my regular morning walk in my garden I noticed an interesting thing.
Beetle named “Florida Predatory Stinkbug” just killed a Japanese beetle and was carrying it around.

1:0 for locals….
i know it is not exactly post about native plants post but I do have rather nasty infestation of Japanese beetles killing my evening primrose and wouldn’t mind if stinkbug were to bring its whole family….
