Give Good Bugs a Leg Up with What You Plant!
What we plant can make all the difference in
helping beneficial insects thrive. Insects have had
a tough go of it in recent decades, with significant
declines all over the country. Many insects are
important to agriculture and healthy landscapes
besides pollinators. When we say beneficial
insects, we are referring not only to pollinators
like butterflies and moths, but other insects such
as parisitoid wasps that prey on pests.
Just planting a variety of native plants can really
help them. It’s not only flowers that help, but
plants of all different types, from wildflowers to shrubs, fruit trees and large trees. Many caterpillars
need specific native trees as their hosts, and most native birds need these larvae to feed their babies
in the spring. Besides native trees, domestic fruit trees can be very important to plant. They may not
be strictly native, but they are always great for pollinators and
wildlife!
So if your property has things such as a nice variety of fruit
trees, native shrubs and trees, flowers that bloom during
different months of the year, fall fruits, tall grasses, shrubby
tangles, old trees, meadows, field borders with native plants, or
wet areas, you are well on your way to doing your part to keep
needed
beneficial insects
thriving...and
wildlife too.
If you’d like to
approach this conservation idea systematically, why
not try the simple steps outlined in UMaine’s
Pollinator Certification program (see resources on
next page)? It’s easy and fun. Waldo SWCD is also here
to help you plan and plant for pollinators and other
beneficial insects.

Planting Bareroot Trees
Bareroot plant material has some special handling requirements to ensure the best health and survival rate for
your seedlings. In General:
•Pay close attention to keeping stock cool, roots moist and protected from direct sunlight, wind and extreme
temperatures.
•Most plants break bud easily after cold storage, but some require a little help, such as “sweating.” See our
resource links on page 5 for more information, especially Knox Lincoln SWCD Landscape and Gardens link.
Before planting
1. Keep plant roots moist, cool and out of the sun.
2. Plants should be transplanted within 24 to 72hours of receiving them, either in their permanent location, in a
pot, or “heeled-in” until they can be planted permanently.
a. Planting within 72 hours: Keep plants in plastic packing and moisten packing material around
roots; store in a cool, dark place.
b. Planting between 3-5 days: Re-pack plants in a box –or other container with drainage –in damp
mulch, sawdust, shredded newspaper; compress to remove air; keep well-watered in a cool, shady
place.
3. Remove dead or withered roots and stems with a knife or shears.
4. Soak roots before sweating or planting
a. Deciduous trees & shrubs: Roots should be soaked for4 to 6 hours before planting to ensure
proper hydration. If possible, continue to soak roots while transplanting.
b. Conifers: Roots should be soaked for only 20-30 minutes.
How to Plant a Tree or Shrub
•Plant your tree as soon as possible after you receive it. Do not let the roots dry out!
•See the resources listed on page — for more help with planting.
•Use the soil from the hole you dig for it and don’t add compost or fertilizer. Placing some leaf litter on top
around the tree to mulch it, but keep the leaves away from the tree’s stem. You can add a small amount
of top soil (2-3 inches at the top of the hole) if the soil is very poor. Make sure water drains out when
poured in the bottom of the hole before you plant there. The hole should be 2-3 times the diameter of the
pot or roots, but only as deep as needed to keep the root collar bulge above ground level.
•Water your tree the first two days, then twice a week for a month, then once per week for the rest of the
growing season (through October 15), unless it’s raining a lot. Water twice a week during any very hot dry
periods the first three years, otherwise continue the weekly watering routine for the first 3 years. Add
fencing and wire mesh to protect your tree from browsing including winter browsing of the trunk by
rodents. Tree tubes can also be used.
•Make sure to plant where the tree will receive the amount of sun it needs (some sun is good for our trees
and shrubs) and learn more at https://www.arborday.org/trees/index-planting.cfm.
Planting for a Changing World: An excerpt from WCSW Journal 2020-2021
Our 2021 Trees of the Future Forest
If you have lived south of Maine, you may already
know and love some of the plants you’ll see in our
plant sale this year. My childhood was filled with
memories of the pink flowers of redbud, and the
lush tulip shaped leaves of tulip poplar (also called
yellow poplar or tuliptree), and picking up black
walnuts and hickory nuts to crack and eat. We would
also venture to collect pawpaw fruits in the woods
to eat their sweet pulp once they were good and
ripe. In Maine, we have plenty of other trees we
love, including spruce, fir, birch, maple, oaks and
pines. Some of these will continue to grow well
here, and others are likely to decline. Maybe some of
these southern species will become plants we love
and grow here in Maine as we lose boreal species.
Our forests are changing, for many reasons, not just
a warming climate but other effects including
diseases and invasive insects...which are likely to get

Landscape Plants
Shrubs, Small and Larger Trees
This year, we are excited to offer seedlings of trees that have been selected for their potential to
thrive and grow in Midcoast Maine in the future. These “adaptive” trees have the potential help our
forests remain diverse and healthy in the midst of losses and climate change. The adaptive trees are
selected based on their beauty, wildlife habitat, economic and ecosystem value. They may work as
supplements or replacements for trees that may not be able to produce forest products or wildlife
food and habitat due to invasive, such as ash trees. The trees are also species that have also been
shown to be highly adaptable to various soil moisture levels and temperature. regimes, and thus have
potential for providing forest products in changing climate conditions. All are beautiful and versatile
trees for your landscape. Be sure to protect your seedlings from hungry browsers such as deer.
Schools are welcome to plant plots of these seedlings for a class learning project (see our resource
Growing and Planting a Tree on our website for teaching ideas).
We have several of our favorite shrubs (potted) that are beautiful and useful on the landscape as well
as being great plants for wildlife.
20. Eastern Redbud - (Cercis canadensis) Seedling. 20’ - 30’ Many of
you who have spent time in the south or Midwest are familiar with
this beautiful small tree. It has unique bright pink flowers that
emerge before the leaves along the trunk and twigs. This forest
understory and pioneer species can be a lovely yard edge or medium
sized ornamental tree, with a graceful, multi-trunk form and heart
shaped leaves. It likes medium moisture levels, and prefers a less
acidic soil. You’ll see that the flowers are classic pea family form, and
so are the small seedpods, which birds can feed upon. Plant your
redbud in a sheltered location where it will get some sun.
23. Common Persimmon- (Diospyros virginiana) In old fields, common
persimmon is a low, shrubby tree, 15 ft. tall. In rich, moist soil the species
becomes a large tree, up to 100 ft. tall, with a spreading crown
and pendulous branches. Bell-shaped, yellow flowers are hidden by half-grown
leaves. Large, oval, mature leaves usually become yellow-green in fall. The large,
orange, edible fruit attracts wildlife. On old trunks the bark is thick and dark-gray
to almost black and broken into scaly, squarish blocks. Common persimmon is
deciduous. Best-known by its sweet, orange fruit in autumn.
27. Highbush cranberry - (Viburnum opulus) 15-18” This tall (to 12’)
shrub is just plain gorgeous, offering dark lobed leaves, dense rounded
growth and brilliant clusters of showy white flowers turning to bright red
clusters of berries, which birds don’t eat, so they persist into winter. A
must have for a showy area of shrubs! Its dense foliage will shelter
songbirds. Foliage is a deep, complex burgundy color in fall that will
make you just as happy as burning bush. Can be pruned to keep at a
lower height. Wet to dry areas.
28. Red-osier (red twig) dogwood – (Cornus sericea) 18-
24” This spreading, tall (6-8’) shrub is perfect for woodland
or wetland borders and other wet places including rain
gardens, but it will also grow in drier soils. Its red twigs
create year around interest. If you are removing
honeysuckle, multiflora rose, knotweed or other plants
that tend to come up in these areas, this vigorous shrub is
the perfect replacement.
34 Virginia Rose - (Rosa virginiana) This lovely native rose is
ready to give you old fashioned scented roses while providing
vigorous, spreading growth that can provide a low hedge or
erosion control on steep, rocky, dry areas or shoreline. It likes
sun but will grow more slowly in part shade. Foliage and stems
offer lovely, deep reds in fall and persistent beautiful hips for
wildlife food…a great replacement for barberry or burning
bush.
30. Northern Spicebush - (Lindera benzoin) 6-12’ Seedling.
A single or few stemmed deciduous shrub with glossy leaves
and graceful, slender, light green branches. Dense clusters of
tiny, pale yellow flowers bloom before the leaves from round
buds along the twigs.
Shrubs, Small and Large Trees, Continued
FUN FACT You can report on how your trees are doing as a part of our Report a Tree citizen science
project. Some trees are potted and 15-24”, and some are seedlings. Check order form for details.
22. White Oak - (Quercus alba) This beautiful, large, functional tree is a Maine
native that doesn’t grow naturally in Waldo County, but has great potential as a tree
for our area, providing high quality lumber and sweet acorns that are excellent food
for wildlife. As a yard tree, white oak develops a beautiful round, spreading form
and has beautiful oak leaves with rounded lobes. Planting oaks is one of the best
ways to support our native butterflies and moths as hundreds of caterpillar species
feed on them.
25. River Birch- (Betula nigra ) The gracefully branched river birch is a 30-50
ft., usually multi-trunked tree which can reach 90 ft. in height. A spreading
crown of several large, ascending limbs support slightly weeping branches.
The tree’s selling point is its satiny, silver bark that peels to reveal a cinnamon-
brown trunk beneath. Fall foliage is yellow. Birches are important to native
insects, birds, and wildlife.
31. Tulip poplar - (Liriodendron tulipifera) This tree has a very nice form both
when young and when older. It is our second largest tree after sycamore, growing to tremendous size in the
southern US. As a yard planting, it has a symmetrical, slightly
conical form, with unique, large leaves that become yellow in
the fall. As it grows taller, it has a very straight, clear bole. It is a
good lumber tree, is fast growing, and shows great potential to
adapt and thrive in our area. Its beautiful, tulip-like flowers
appeal to pollinators, and it produces small, soft seeds which
provide wildlife food similar to ash trees, which are likely to die
out due to the invasive insect emerald ash borer.
30. Black Tupelo - (Nyssa sylvatica) A dense, conical or sometimes flat-topped
crown, many slender, nearly horizontal branches, and glossy foliage turning scarlet
in autumn. A gorgeous tree, black tupelo grows 30-60 ft. or taller, with horizontally
spreading branches .The lovely, dark, nutritious fruit is consumed by many birds
and mammals.
33. Beach Plum (Prunus maritima) A rounded,
dense, suckering shrub growing 6 ft. tall or more.
White, single or double flowers occur in small clusters before the dark-
green, glossy leaves. Fruits are dull purple to crimson, ripening from Aug.
to Oct. Great for shores and tough sites. This plant supports native
beneficial insects.24. Shagbark hickory - (Carya ovata) The bark of this tree is unique and ornamental,
with gracefully curving, peeling strips. Its leaves and twigs are also attractive, and it
produces very tasty, edible nuts that also feed wildlife. Hickory wood is strong, is an
excellent fuelwood and also provides forest products. Hickory regenerates well after
harvest from stump sprouts. It is not native to our area, but shows potential to be able
to grow here and adapt to a variety of conditions. It likes to grow in dry upland sites.
29. Black walnut - (Juglans nigra) This sturdy tree produces prolific,
edible walnuts. Its lumber is highly valued, and it is also used for veneer.
Although it is not native to our area, it is successfully grown here and in
similar climates. It is an adaptable tree, and like hickory, has potential to
provide mast (nuts) food for wildlife, to replace lost chestnut, butternut
and beech nut crops.
26.Sweet Pepperbush - (Clethra alnifolia) A narrow, deciduous shrub,
which often spreads into mounded clumps. A tall, many-branched,
leafy shrub with spike-like, upright clusters of fragrant white flowers. The
dense, narrow, cylindric flower spikes are often clustered together at
branch ends. Fragrant flowers are white and are followed by brown
capsules which persist through winter to create great winter form. Also a
great pollinator plant!
31. Northern Bayberry - (Morella pensylvanica) A spreading, much-
branched shrub, 3-12 ft. tall. Glossy, fragrant gray-green, egg-shaped leaves
remain on the plant in the southern part of its range, or turn tan-colored and
persist into winter farther north. Green catkins appear before leaves. Clusters
of small, round, hard, white berries remain on the female plant all winter
36. American Chestnut - (Castanea dentata) The beloved tree of
American forests, this tree produces delicious nuts prized by people and
wildlife. This is not a fully blight resistant tree, but you can let us know
how your tree is doing as a part of our Report a Tree program.
35. Pussy Willow - (Salix discolor) A narrow shrub or small tree to 20 ft. with multiple
trunks and dark-gray, scaly bark. The familiar, silvery-gray, furry catkins appear before
leaf emergence. In winter, cut pussy willow twigs can be put in water and the flowers
forced at warm temperatures. Willows are very important to a large number of native
insects.Perennials
