Why Plant Native Species?

You can choose from a variety of native ferns, flowers, plants, shrubs or woody plants suited to almost any backyard. Native plants are beautiful, hardy, less expensive, easy to maintain, beneficial to the environment and thrive in Illinois gardens.

• No need for fertilizers, pesticides, or water and lawn maintenance equipment
• Native flowering species will provide an abundance of nectar and attract wildlife from butterflies and songbirds, to chipmunks and beneficial insects
• For species information and photos, visit Illinois Wildflowers, Possibility Place Nursery, USDA Plants Database, or the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation.
