Thank you sir! It is a very important thing to educate people on the wildlife and what actually belongs in your environment and what not. I love nature in general, but invasive species are very dangerous to the environments they were brought in to. Evolution needs time and we are just very rarely lucky enough to see how evolution make jumps during two or three generations. But even then, only because a butterfly (for example) were able to make a jump in its evolution, it doesn't mean that everything else can do it as fast as the butterfly did. Evolution needs normally hundred thousand or even millions of years to happen. Because of that we need to do all what we can to eliminate the invasive specieses we can find... no matter how beautiful or cute they are. If there is nothing that is able to use it as a food source, we have to take the responsibility to get rid of it ourselves.

@palmdaddy
@palmdaddy 25 күн бұрын
Yes, if it gets below 0C I wrap the trunk. The leaves tend to fold off and melt down anyways so as long as I can protect the trunk it comes back just as high. If the trunk also melts down it comes back from the next healthy node on the trunk. If it’s really cold it comes back from the roots.
