Hellebore, passionflower, black-eyed Susan, hydrangea. But if you have deer, they will mow down your hydrangea. The rest are pretty deer-resistant.

Most of the nurseries, even Sneed's, will sell cultivars as natives. This can, but won't always be, harmful to local ecotypes of our native plants because they can sometimes crossbreed. Just keep that in mind when shopping for natives anywhere. People who know what they're doing will indicate this on their inventory or be able to speak to it.

Also the natives that will be best for you will be dependent upon the conditions in the spot you'd like to plant. The local native growers can be super helpful, but you should get familiar with the moisture and light conditions in your yard. If it's your first year in this spot, note that the sun angle and quantity will change with the summer sun and foliage.

News flash: we live in a first world country.

I’m not vegan or vegetarian but support people who choose those diets and also restaurants providing options for them.

Tofu and beans are way cheaper then meat and eggs too so I don’t really know what you are getting at saying it’s “bourgeois”.

Talk to your county extension agent. They can point you in the right direction, it's what they do.....

I always try to buy tickets at box offices or physical locations when I can. The fees are usually a lot cheaper, only a few dollars, and they are usually going to venue instead of ticket master or axs. Tickets are sometime not often cheaper too.

The National sells tickets for VACU live and Plan 9 sell tickets for a lot of Brown's Island shows
