A native plant garden is a garden that features plants indigenous to a specific region. These plants are adapted to the local climate, soil, and wildlife, making them easier to grow and maintain. By using native species, gardeners can create a sustainable environment that supports local ecosystems and promotes biodiversity. In addition to being low-maintenance, native plant gardens provide essential habitats for local wildlife, including pollinators like bees and butterflies. They also help reduce water usage and minimize the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides, contributing to a healthier environment.
