At the Emerald Necklace native plant garden (which is terribly small and whose invertebrate community is largely (if not wholly) composed of degraded-habitat species like this one). For some reason both native and invasive herbivore (incl. pollinator) insect density there is unusually high compared to other nonanthropogenic and anthropogenic native plant stands I've visited, but I don't know whether this is a good thing or not. I suspect that our native aridland plants become less phytochemically defended when watered copiously and that Plymouth's ones have been watered more copiously than ones in other native plant stands I've visited.
