The Registry of Nature Habitats - Summer Plants Components of a Nature Habitat
Structural: Living:
Not everyone will be blessed with all sixteen Habitat Components on their property. This does not mean that introducing as many as possible will not enhance wildlife. The key is to understant each of the components, what they are, how they assist in nature and what wildlife will be assisted by their availability. Living Summer Plants - These plants produce fruits and berries and provide cover for wildlife. This includes trees, shrubs, aquatic plants & vines that produce fruit from June - August. These plants tend to spread and create thickets which provides cover and nesting areas in addition to a food source. These include raspberries, blackberries, wild plum, serviceberries, chokeberries, honeysuckle and others. Mulberry, chokecherries and black cherries are good trees for providing food.
