  • Song Sparrow March - April 2016
    Song Sparrow March - April 2016 The Chickadee’s guide to gardening In your garden, choose plants that help the environment Reprinted with permission of the author. Originally ran in the March 11, 2015 edition of The New York Times. I grew up thinking little of plants. I was interested in snakes and turtles, then insects and, eventually, birds. Now I like plants. But I still like the life they create even more. Plants are as close to biological miracles as a scientist could dare admit. After all, they allow us, and nearly every other species, to eat sunlight, by creating the nourishment that drives food webs on this planet. As if that weren’t enough, plants also produce oxygen, build topsoil and hold it in place, prevent floods, sequester carbon dioxide, buffer extreme weather and clean our water. Considering all this, you might think we gardeners would value plants for what they do. Instead, we value them for what they look like. When we design our home landscapes, too many of us choose beautiful plants from all over the world, without consider- ing their ability to support life within our local ecosystems. Last summer I did a simple experiment at home to measure just how differ- ent the plants we use for landscaping can be in supporting local animals. I compared a young white oak in my yard with one of the Bradford pears in my neighbor’s yard. Both trees are the same size, but Bradford pears are or- namentals from Asia, while white oaks are native to eastern North America.
