When selecting plants for your garden, it’s important to consider more than just color and shape. Native and climate-appropriate plants often require less water, resist local pests, and thrive with minimal maintenance. Perennials are great for long-term color, while annuals can be swapped seasonally for variety.
Shrubs and evergreens provide structure and year-round interest. Sun exposure, soil type, and drainage also play crucial roles in plant health. A thoughtful mix of flowering plants, ground cover, and ornamental grasses adds texture and depth to your landscape while supporting biodiversity and pollinators.
