There has long been a debate between the virtues of native plants vs. exotic species. Many worthwhile native trees and shrubs have gone ignored to put more emphasis on plants with Asian or European nativity. Many native flowering trees and shrubs, evergreens and groundcovers can provide ornamental benefits and function in the landscape. Because these plants are native, they will thrive in our climate where sited correctly. This topic will dispel the notion that natives are not as interesting in the landscape as exotics.
Join us on Sunday, January 22 to learn how you can incorporate native plants into your landscaping to help attract local birds and pollinators.
