Welcome to The Plant Native

Native gardens made easy for busy people.

Why native plants?

Native plants evolved over thousands of years in your region. They know your soil, your weather, your wildlife.

They thrive with less fuss, support butterflies and birds, and give you a yard that feels alive, not overworked.

However, you can certainly minimize your chances of killing plants by working with species that are adapted to the light, water, and soil conditions of wherever you are gardening.
