Without native plants, local wildlife disappears. Our bees, butterflies, and birds have all evolved over eons to feed off of particular local plants. Our mission then is to restore native plants to our yards and our communities in order that we will have that wildlife among us for future generations.
When you plant native plants, you support local wildlife. We need a lot of native plants in our yards and our public spaces if we are to continue to experience the presence of local wildlife, in particular birds, butterflies, and bees. So find out what’s native and what’s non-native, and by all means, what’s invasive.
