Why grow native plants?
Native plants support local biodiversity. Many insects, including specialist pollinators, depend on them for nectar, pollen, leaves or habitat. They provide food and homes for birds, mammals, amphibians and microbes. They create the structural diversity (groundcover, shrubs, canopy) that many animals need for nesting, foraging and shelter.
