It’s rewarding to observe nesting in the dry stems of native plants. We do some pruning to harvest seeds and collect hollow straws. Insects often use the cut ends remaining at the plant. We observe a hole after the insects have hollowed out a cavity for egg laying. Also a plug of nesting material when they are done if we are observant. #nativeplants, #pollinators, #minnesota. 2025-12-03T01:04:52Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs9sxzez4h7smkqghnec8h70d35nkg2dlmc0e7eslc4vvc24pczm9qzyrrgv5qyghj3r68gw4am7jv7cz8tplf78qqsj4fgq8ayjcfkyqpkvyjzsks <img src="https://files.epicure.social/epicure-social/media_attachments/files/115/579/246/351/682/862/original/673d89e998d2aaed.png"> <br/> 2025-11-20T00:43:23Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs9323yp4jvmuxzcjl8nktqxrc90p668al5vtaw3t6wy0c95q7ghfczyrrgv5qyghj3r68gw4am7jv7cz8tplf78qqsj4fgq8ayjcfkyqpkvl96q94 This pollinator has managed to survive five frosty nights in southern Minnesota.

It’s good to hear from you. This is our first season of these. The Ethiopian Eggplant seeds are from Seed Savers of Iowa for any research. The Solanum Aetheopicum germinated and transplanted well.

The obedient plant is Physostegia virginiana. The plants are blooming profusely! The long flower spires develop from the bottom upward.
