The Benefits of Using Native Plants

Native plants have countless advantages to you, your wallet, and the environment  compared to conventional lawn and landscaping. Native gardens do not require mowing, pesticides, or fertilizer in order to prosper, and can greatly save you on costs in the long run. Native plants also provide exceptional benefits to the soil, water, wildlife, and climate, as well as creating diverse ecologies to manage pests and harmful insects.

Installing native landscapes is a wonderful alternative to traditional landscaping, all the while serving our planet and providing you with color and texture throughout every season. Michigan is home to thousands of native plants, from delicate spring ephemerals, berry-bearing shrubs and trees, stoic meadow grasses, vibrant wildflowers, and shade-giving trees. Your garden can have all of the beauty and grandeur without introducing invasive species.
