Plants native to North America are those that naturally occur in the region and were found in the area before European colonization. Native plants are the base of the region’s biodiversity, providing nourishment and habitat for beneficial insects, wildlife and birds that are also native to the area. Having evolved over thousands of years, they are suited to the area’s climate, weather conditions, and soils.
The key to getting started is choosing the right native plants for your area. That is where the CCERC Master Gardener Volunteers have done the work for you. They have carefully selected North American native plants that should thrive in your landscapes and positively contribute to the local ecosystem.
