Good stuff. Been restoring 30 acres at my place in southern New Jersey for about 10 years now. Partnered with the US Fish and Wildlife service and converted 6 acres of hay field to a native grassland with a wide array of native wildflowers. It’s a site to see when it’s in bloom during the summer months! Prepping 2 more acres to be mostly wildflower and shrub habitat beside the other 6. It’s amazing how much life it brings. Love this stuff. Keep up your good work.

You collected some green gama grass seed. When I collect it I only take the kernels that break off easy. I didn't know you could take green seeds. Plus gama grass is distantly related to corn. There was a guy near Salina KS who was trying to develop a gama grass that would produce lots of seeds at one time so that it could be harvested like coen. A crop you don't have to plant or til the soil. Save erosion, native plants with big root system, carbon sink plus a dryland crop needs no irrigation. It was an interesting concept but I haven't heard anything for years.

I have a question , is there a wild native hyacinth plant in Alabama? We lived for many years on my wife’s grandmother’s home place. I would find these little plants in the yard that looks so much like a hyacinth but only having four to six blooms. They were coming up from a corn , a roundish corn. I liked them so each year I’d collect two or three plants in the early winter and planted them in a flower garden. When we moved I gathered all those and brought them with me and planted them at my home now. Are these a native plant? I left three times the number I took.

The seeds have to dry out in order to germinate and grow. A lot of native seeds need to undergo a period of cold, moist stratification, too, before they will germinate, which means letting them dry out completely and then giving them somewhere around 30-90 days of cold, moist conditions before planting them.

A lot of times, what just comes up naturally nowadays in a lot of areas are invasive weeds. So, you really need to learn to identify your plants or seek out someone knowledgeable who can assist you in knowing what’s actually native to your area and what’s not. The key to restoration is getting rid of the invasives and other non-natives and encouraging (or even planting) natives. Check out Indigenous Landscapes for details on how you can go about doing that.
