For sale this spring online and at our garden center: Skullcap is a low growing herbaceous native perennial in the mint family. Like other members of the mint family, skullcap is square-stemmed and has opposite leaves, though it doesn't have aromatic properties like other mint family members. Small, hooded flowers bloom starting in July, with colors ranging from blue to white, and sometimes pink. As a nervine, skullcap has a long history of medicinal use. It thrives in very moist, wet conditions that have access to full sun. It reaches heights of 2-3 feet and will spread 1.5-2.5 feet, spreading through rhizomes and runners.

Coming this spring to our collection of medicinal plants for sale at the nursery: Passionflower!! This incredible climbing vine has one of the most striking flowers- almost insect-like in its display of delicate purple petals and filaments. Once spent, the flower is replaced by a small fruit called a maypop, edible to both humans and animals. This plant is used both medicinally and spiritually, often tinctured or used in teas. It is also a great pollinator source, attracting fruit birds and many types of butterflies. Though native to the southern United States, this plant can be grown as a perennial if its root base is protected through the winter. ………………Read 👇………………….

This year we are expanding our medicinal herb offerings at our garden center! Keep an eye out over the coming weeks as we profile some of our favorites. Today's favorite on this cold, icy night is lemon verbena. Known for its intense scent and flavor, Aloysia citrodora, is an herbaceous shrub with long, narrow lance-shaped leaves. It has pale white flowers that bloom from summer to fall, which is when the lemon scent is strongest. It's leaves are used both medicinally and for culinary purposes, releasing the strongest scent when fresh and mellowing out when dried. It's medicinal use is often connected to digestive and mental health, as it is said to be a relaxant. Simply for it's warmth of flavor, it would be delicious paired with tulsi and mint as a nourishing winter tea. #medicinalplants #herbalism #lemonverbena #sunshineinacup #aloysiacitrodora #onenature

#wolfmoon, just one of the many names for this January’s full moon, this one also falls on this #mlkday day and #tubishvat. Once upon a time #canislupus walked the Hudson Valley in large numbers, but are now extirpated. MLK was killed, along with the old growth forests here that supported vibrant life. Let’s embrace hope, justice and the inherent rights of all people, plants and animals as we remember them and “plant the trees” for a future generation.

Tropical Forest Canopy Study, Tobago. 2010. 9 in x 12 in, watercolor.

Happy New Year 2022! Here’s to another spin around the sun, living in a positive way, staying strong in Babylon, and doing the right work for the planet and the people. #oneplanet #onepeople #onenature

Did you know that there's a population of Broom crowberry (Corema conradii) on Gertrude's Nose near Lake Minnewaska? A very rare, low growing evergreen species, this is the only known population outside of the coastal plain, and the only known population in the state of New York. Growing alongside plants like pitch pine, highbush blueberry, mountain laurel, chokeberry, and various types of oaks, it likes full sun, sandy soils and exposed rock ledges. #coremaconradii #gertrudesnose #minnewaska #dwarfpitchpineforest

All done on the installation of our $5000 Miyawaki Forest raffle giveaway to celebrate the 100 gardens built by our #beaconrefugia project. Landscape is a very slow form of art, but these types of forests are designed to fix carbon and create habitat much more quickly than typical plantings. We intentionally plant smaller, less expensive plant material at very close spacing, let them self select survive, and embrace the aesthetic that ecological competition creates. For this planting we chose species that would not grow more than 20’ tall. #miyawaki #miyawakiforest #onenature #carbonfixation #oiltosoil #nativeplants #ecologicalparadigm

We added five more species of native willow #salix species to our #orangecountyny plant nursery today. Did you know that most willows can be grown from hardwood cuttings during their dormant season? Just snip off a branch, bury in the ground, and as long as there is moisture and sun it will grow. While the non-native weeping willow is probably the most well known, native willows have really vigorous roots that stabilize soils, and their spring flowers are one of the first available food sources for pollinating insects.

This 40” x 60” model is twice the size we normally work in, but well worth the effort for a proposed upstate Landscape Hotel. Next week we’ll add the concept design to the surface. Over the lifespan of a project, a site model can save tens of thousands of dollars by quickly and accurately orienting interdisciplinary professionals involved in large-scale projects. It’s also a fantastic way to convey design intent to laypeople (who often cannot read plans). While the rest of the world seems to be collectively moving towards homogeneity and virtual reality, #onenature is firmly committed to a site specific, tactile, and hand built artistic process. #landscapehotel #earthworks #earthart #landart #environmentalplanning

Evening golden light rays celebrated today on this newly built ground level deck across an important #geospiritual lake outlet. Another step forward here on this multi-year lakefront meadow garden vision. The deck shape will make much more sense after we install three acres of riparian meadow and paths this spring. #onenature

Model making is a type of earth worship.

Propagating Plants for NYDEC

October 01, 2018

New York City spends billions of dollars to protect its drinking water system, arguably the City's largest capital asset. Since 2016, One Nature has propagated plants for riparian stream corridor restoration project in the New York City's West-of-Hudson Reservoir system. These plants, grown with no chemical herbicides or pesticides, are critical to ensuring that the forests around the reservoirs are healthy enough to filter pollutants from the drinking water. Seeds are collected from the Catskill Mountains, started by our partners at the NYC Greenbelt Center in Staten Island, and grown-to-size in our plant nursery. At least 5,000 trees are delivered each fall to partner Soil and Water Conservation districts for installation.

For our latest shipment, some of the species include: Spirea alba (Meadowsweet), Betula alleghaniensis (Yellow Birch), Populus deltoides (Eastern Cottonwood), Cornus amomum (Silky Dogwood), Pinus strobus (White Pine), and many more.
