Kentucky Color: Sugar Maple Nursery By Billy Joe Fudge I hear folk complaining often about being bored. The definition of bored is, "made weary by dullness, repetitiveness or tediousness". My friends, life is so dynamic and so filled with variety that boredom should be an alien state of mind. We, instead, should be awestruck by the enormity and variety of life. With every step we take or change of direction in our lives, a new ecosystem is before us, above us, below us, around us and just waiting to be explored! This mini-nursery (see photo) located on the Northeast side of a Sugar maple is a perfect example of an anti-boredom elixir. Bermuda grass (Moody grass in the Great Wooded South), Eastern red cedar sprangling outward and upward in search of direct sunlight while three little American hollies are loving the shade. The two smaller ones are probably only a year or so old and are kinda dwarfed by the clover-like Creeping woodsorrel. Additionally, girdling roots are a real problem with Maples, especially those that have been transplanted into our urban landscapes like this one. This story was posted on 2024-07-01 14:10:21
