Why Natives?
Native plants provide an essential function to our landscape. They provide food for wildlife, filter impurities for ground water, keep the ecosystem in balance, stabilize soil, recycle CO2 and much much more. When used in your landscape they are beneficial for their ability to survive our climate, will use less water if the correct plant is planted in the correct location, and contribute to the overall unique western aesthetic that we all love so much.
“I was very excited to be invited to participate in the panel on designing with native plants and am looking forward to sharing my thoughts, TLC’s philosophies and hearing others input.”
