native gardens
Regional flora landscaping
Native gardens are landscaped areas planted primarily with species indigenous to the local region rather than imported ornamentals.
The approach emphasizes plants that evolved in the area's climate and soil, requiring less water and maintenance while supporting local wildlife: We converted the lawn to a native garden to attract pollinators.
Native gardening has gained popularity as awareness of ecological sustainability grows.
