NATURESCAPE FOR CLEAN RIVERS AND FOR WILDLIFE HABITAT! Native plants are adapted to the climate and are naturally resistant to native pests and diseases. They require less water and need no chemical applications for them to thrive. Using native plants can reduce the amount of pollution in stormwater runoff to our waterways.
