Turf Wars: St. Augustine

The Horticulturati ·

2024/01/19

On this episode, we’re sinking our toes into St. Augustine grass (Stenotaphrum secundatum), icon of the Texas lawn from Hank Hill’s house to the State Capitol grounds. Millions of acres of prime farmland and front yards are dedicated to this non-edible crop. St. Augustine is so ubiquitous in our landscape it’s almost invisible. But what paradoxes are hiding in plain sight? This coastal pioneer species, which grows on all continents except Antarctica, would seem to be an evolutionary success story

Grasses for Butterflies

The Horticulturati ·

2023/08/22

When you picture a butterfly garden, you probably envision big, colorful flowers. But did you know that over 100 butterfly species in Texas use native grasses and sedges as their larval host plants? In this episode, Leah makes the case for adding grasses to your pollinator garden. The majority of grass-obligate butterflies – skippers and satyrs—are small, brown, and understudied. Leah argues that our aesthetic preference for the “charismatic megafauna” of the world of Lepidoptera has created a
