- Native plants need minimal maintenance
- Plants native to your area are more drought- and heat-tolerant and less likely to freeze
- Once established, native plants need less water—lower cost & less work
- Natives need little or no fertilizer—lower cost & less pollution
- Native plants support 29 times more wildlife diversity than exotic plants
- “Your land can be a wildlife preserve that represents our last chance for sustaining plants and birds that were once common throughout the United States.”—Douglas Tallamy, in Bringing Nature Home: How You Can Sustain Wildlife with Native Plants
