Berita Untuk mendapatkan dedaunan yang cemerlang, carilah pohon asli

Oleh JESSICA DAMIANO

Jika Anda sedang mencari pohon baru, pertimbangkan untuk menanam pohon asli. Perawatannya umumnya lebih rendah dibandingkan spesies eksotik, membutuhkan lebih sedikit air, pupuk dan pestisida, dan seringkali juga lebih murah.

Pohon-pohon asli juga mendukung satwa liar asli kita, yang berevolusi bersama mereka, jadi kenali pohon-pohon tersebut sebagai makanan. Hal yang sama tidak berlaku untuk banyak pohon pendatang. Dan pohon-pohon eksotik yang dikenali oleh serangga mungkin tidak memiliki bentuk bunga yang tepat untuk mengakomodasi mulutnya. Hewan lain mungkin menyediakan makanan dalam jumlah yang cukup, namun tidak menyediakan nutrisi yang dibutuhkan oleh hewan asli kita.

Ini adalah beberapa pohon asli favorit saya, diurutkan berdasarkan warna musim gugur untuk mewujudkan impian lanskap Anda menjadi kenyataan yang berkelanjutan.

UNTUK MERAH

Mari kita mulai dengan pohon ek, yang dianggap sebagai spesies kunci Amerika Utara, karena merupakan komponen penting ekosistem. Pohon ek menyokong ratusan spesies serangga asli, yang mencari makan, bertelur, dan berlindung di atas dan di bawah daunnya.

Ek merah (Quercus coccinea) tumbuh paling baik di bawah sinar matahari penuh, tingginya mencapai 50-70 kaki, dan berkobar dengan dedaunan merah di musim gugur di zona hortikultura 5-9. Ek merah (Quercus rubra) memiliki sifat serupa, sedangkan ek putih (Quercus alba) tahan terhadap suhu dingin, sehingga cocok untuk zona 3-9, dan dapat tumbuh setinggi 10 kaki.

Semua serviceberry asli memberikan warna musim gugur yang bagus, tetapi Amelanchier x grandiflora 'Autumn Brilliance,' hibrida A. arborea dan A. laevis, keduanya penduduk asli AS bagian timur, benar-benar mencuri perhatian dengan dedaunan oranye-merah yang mencolok dan cemerlang. Bunga putih kecil mekar di musim semi, diikuti buah beri ungu kehitaman yang bisa dimakan di musim panas. Tanam di bawah sinar matahari penuh untuk memberi naungan di zona 4-9.

Dogwood berbunga (Cornus florida) adalah pohon berbatang tunggal atau banyak dengan bunga musim semi berwarna putih atau merah muda dan dedaunan musim gugur berwarna merah, mencapai ketinggian 20-40 kaki untuk membelah sinar matahari di zona 2-10.

Pertimbangkan juga: Maple merah (Acer rubrum), yang memberikan warna sepanjang tahun, menampilkan kuncup merah di musim dingin dan bunga merah di musim semi, saat matahari penuh di zona 3-9; dan abu gunung Amerika (Sorbus americana) di bawah sinar matahari penuh di zona 3-6.

UNTUK KUNING

Pohon tulip (Liriodendron tulipifera), sepupu magnolia, benar-benar menakjubkan di musim semi ketika harum, bunga berbentuk tulip bermekaran, dan sama indahnya di musim gugur ketika daunnya berubah warna menjadi emas cerah. Pohon-pohon yang tumbuh cepat ini tingginya mencapai 60-80 kaki di zona 4-9 tetapi berakar dangkal dan lebat di bagian atas, sehingga dapat tumbang jika ditanam di tanah yang basah.
