In this context, all plants are not equal: native species are far more important in their ability to support wildlife and the biodiverse ecosystems on which we depend. This website will teach you about native plants and their exceptional value and beauty in the landscape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615b95a44f115a5cab854c75/b1aeab84-96f8-4fc8-bdfc-5025fa0ff583/030_R_C3506.jpg Home - A Little About Kim. Kim Frisbie writes about sustainable native plantings in South Florida’s landscape. She has a BA in English with a minor in Horticulture from Smith College and an MS in Ornamental Horticulture from the Longwood Program at the University of Delaware. She published her first articles for Horticulture Magazine in the late 70’s and had a gardening column in several Philadelphia papers for 12 years. After moving to Palm Beach, she saw the island creating monocultures using the same alien species with little concern for sustainable ecosystems. https://www.kimfrisbie.com/about-kim daily 0.75 2022-01-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615b95a44f115a5cab854c75/ab667ccf-ae12-4aba-b260-47f3fdd13ad7/024_R_C3506.jpg About Kim Kim Frisbie writes about sustainable native plantings in South Florida’s landscape. She has a BA in English with a minor in Horticulture from Smith College and an MS in Ornamental Horticulture from the Longwood Program at the University of Delaware. She published her first articles for Horticulture Magazine in the late 70’s and had a gardening column in several Philadelphia papers for 12 years. After moving to Palm Beach, she saw the island creating monocultures using the same alien species with little concern for sustainable ecosystems. Manicured, chemically treated properties result in diminished songbirds, butterflies, and pollinators. Toxic pesticides applied to lawns and hedges pollute the air, soil and waterways. Kim’s aim is to educate the public on the essential role of native species for the insects and pollinators that provide sustenance to birds and wildlife. She underscores the dangers of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides to our health and that of our children and pets. She also hopes to teach better appreciation of the inherent beauty of Florida’s natural flora, which can be incorporated into any landscape. What to chat? Just e-mail Kim - she’d be happy to talk all things plants.
