Why Use Native Plants?
Native or indigenous plants…
  - Naturally occur in the area they evolved
  - Are adapted to local soil, rainfall, and temperature conditions
  - Have developed natural defenses to many insects and diseases
  - Grow with minimal use of water, fertilizers, and pesticides (which is good for our local waterways and the Bay)
  - Provide food and habitat for local wildlife species (like butterflies!)
  - Are fun and beautiful!
