Patty Shipley, owner of Leaves for Wildlife, explains how to use native plants in your landscaping and why you should. Bring your questions.

Patty will show examples of how you can add beauty and help nature.

Save time, add beauty, and help wildlife by turning your lawn into a native garden or just add natives to your landscape:

• For ease: Native plants properly sited and planted are hardy and adapted to normal weather extremes.

• For wildlife: Native plants provide food and shelter for 10 to 15 times as many species of native wildlife as non-native plants.

• For wild pollinators: Native plants support wild pollinators vital for fruit production and other foods we eat. 1 of every 3 bites of food we eat exists because of pollinators.

• For water savings: Native plants normally get the moisture they need from rain, while a 1000 square foot lawn requires 10,000 gallons of water per summer to keep it green.

• For air quality: Native plants don’t require motorized equipment, while lawn mowers, string trimmers and leaf blowers emit 10 to 34 times more hydrocarbon than a typical car!

• For beauty: In a world that is becoming increasingly homogenized, using native plants can help us blend our land and buildings into the surrounding environment, creating a landscape that is regional, unique and beautiful.
