Garden Design
Gardens can be as varied as the ones who plant them, from manicured and trim to wild and free. We certainly aren’t designers, but we have found a variety of resources to help you design the native plant garden of your dreams!

A national organization dedicated to getting more native plants in our landscape has developed regional planting plans. The designs were created with the premise that using native plants in landscaping can be beautiful, promote wildlife, and be achievable for gardeners of all skillsets in terms of scope and budget.
