Native Plants in the Home Landscape | Volunteer Gardener

Native plants have evolved in a region with adaptations to the geology, climate, soil, to the wildlife, and to the other plants. Therefore, a key to successful ornamental gardening would be to include a high percentage of native trees, shrubs and perennials. Tammy Algood discusses the attributes of natives with Margie Hunter, author of 'Gardening with Native Plants of Tennessee: The Spirit of Place'.

Hi there! New sub, enjoying this video. As I become a more experienced gardener, the more I’m learning about and utilizing native plants in my landscape. I’m in southwest Ohio. Thanks for this very informative conversation! ~Angela

Joining Wild Ones is a great way to learn how to incorporate native plants into your home landscape and to see how others are using native plants for bees and butterflies. They also have wonderful videos to watch.

Agree depending upon the bulldozer man details sometimes you get topsoil and sometimes clay and lots of rocks, I got lots of clay and rocks.
Unless you "dig into your soil ".we can only guess.
Thanks

Margie great Lady and knowledge, But I'm hopeful you're going to other areas like Ohio

It takes a lot of faith to believe in the unproven theory of evolution.

The God I worship created all the plants.
