We want our planet, community, family and pets to stay
healthy; native plant landscapes don't need pesticides or fertilizers, better for all.
Native plants don't require extra water, saving natural
resources and our money.
If we replace our lawns with natives, we'll save the time
now spent mowing.
Native plants attract and nourish native wildlife, we'll
be seeing more butterflies and hearing more birds.
We can create a beautiful, drought-tolerant landscape.
Native plants are often less expensive than exotics, if
our county has a plant salvage program we can really save, twice.
Native plants can be used to control erosion and reduce
run-off, keeping sediments and pollutants out of our waterways.
Native plants often have better survival rates than
exotics.
Using native plants reduces the risk of adding invasive
species to the environment.
Native plants help give our home landscapes a true sense
of place.
