IronWood Needles?
#13
It's good to hear about the blow gun progress!;>
Since I last posted on this thread I heard of a great use for the ironwood needles from an expert on permaculture - she uses them to mulch pathways where you wouldnt want anything to grow. Apparently they work pretty well. I went over to DNLR's Arbor Day plant sale on Friday, and to my great chagrin, lurking amongst all the cool native trees and interesting fruit and landscape trees were - (gasp!) - little baby ironwoods for sale! It was pretty crowded by then and the nice people working at the counter didn't really know why specific plants were included in the sale... I know they have been used in forestry applications in the past as erosion control, windbreak and fast shade in coastal places where the native vegetation is gone - I just can't believe they're still being planted here - especially with the blessing of DNLR. Maybe it was an unintentional mistake.
