SHRUBS
The shrubs of New England are a testament to the region's ecological richness and diversity. From the vibrant blooms of rhododendrons and mountain laurels to the autumnal hues of highbush blueberries, these shrubs offer beauty and function throughout the seasons. Their presence enriches the landscape, supports wildlife, and ensures the health of New England's natural environments.
The Ecological Importance of Shrubs
Shrubs play a crucial role in New England's ecosystems. They provide essential habitat and food sources for wildlife, including birds, mammals, and insects. Many shrubs also help prevent soil erosion and improve soil health through their root systems.
Nesting and Shelter
Birds and small mammals rely on shrubs for nesting sites and shelter from predators. Dense shrubbery offers protection and a safe place to raise their young.
Pollination
Flowering shrubs attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. These pollinators are vital for the reproduction of many plants and contribute to the overall health of the ecosystem.
Food Sources
Berries and seeds produced by shrubs provide food for various wildlife species. Highbush blueberries, for example, are a favorite of both birds and mammals.
