Natives are also great because when you go out into the woods you can recognize plants from your garden! Sadly, garden souls are often in much worse shape than what natives need (usually very compacted and lacking in organic matter).

But native plants are tremendous fun and there are ton of resources available to help you find the right plant for the right spot.
