Native Perennials

Native perennials are tough, adaptable, and a haven for wildlife

Because native perennials have made their home in the US for ages, they're already well-acclimated to our growing conditions and require less care than nursery-bred and hybrid plants. This means that they don't struggle as much to survive swings in temperature, periods of less rain or more rain, and bouts of humidity than cultivated ornamental flowers will. Further, the mutually-beneficial relationships that natives have in place with pollinators and other wildlife make them the best choices for gardeners looking to support bees, birds, and butterflies.
