25 Woodland Shade Garden Ideas To Try This Year

Choose native plants and plant in naturalistic way - it makes your garden feel like nature is nurturing it.

Native plants and flowers can be used to make your garden feel like a natural habitat. They will help to keep the area looking neat and tidy, while providing various benefits for the garden's occupants. Some of the more common native plants found in gardens include rosemary, lavender, helenium, bugleweed, philadelphus, goldenrod, and grape hyacinth. There are many other varieties of native plants that are equally as beautiful and can be used to add character to your garden. Adding natives to your garden will help to conserve resources, reduce erosion, and support wildlife habitats. By taking some time to select plants that are native to your area, you can create a garden that is both beautiful and environmentally friendly.
