At Brewer Pond, the butterfly meadow (about 3000 square metres) began as an experiment to find plants that can compete with Dog-strangling Vine. We knew goldenrods and Purple-flowering Raspberry could do that, but we’ve added asters, hyssop, yarrow, and bergamot in the sunny field that used to be a parking lot. In the shade, we’re trying White Snakeroot, Zigzag Goldenrod, Giant Yellow Hyssop, and Ostrich Fern.
