Bringing Natural Beauty to Your Garden

Come see inspirational photographs of environmentally friendly native-plant gardening that will be attractive to birds, butterflies, and other wildlife, and learn about special situations where native plants are great choices, such as rain gardens, boulevard gardens, and shade.
