Native Plant Resources
Native plants have many benefits including colorful attractive landscaping all year, reduced maintenance (like mowing and watering), they attract native pollinators and wildlife, they help filter pollutants from roof or lawn run-off, they provide healthy habitat, and reduce your carbon footprint. They can also provide shade, privacy, and a barrier from wind or sound.
