Planting native species in disturbed areas

Plants that take place naturally in an area are called native plants. For example: Rose spirea , Big bluestem, Hardhack etc. If they occur in a disturbed area they can provide many benefits to the ecosystem.

Helping wildlife

Different types of birds, butterflies and moths are all dependent on specific native plant species. Native plants supply nectar for pollinators. For example native bees, humming birds, butterflies etc.

Native plants also give shelter to many mammals including squirrels, porcupines, birds etc. Fruits and seeds manufactured by these plants give essential foods for all types of wildlife.

Native plants need much less watering, fertilizers, and pesticides. They can prevent water run off and refine air quality. Native plants can also help lessen pollution because they remove the requirement of mowers and other equipment.

Native plants have many advantages that can help the environment. For example they recycle materials, they run on renewable energy, storing carbon and supplying food and shelter for wildlife.

Conserving water

The deep root system of numerous native plants expands the soil's size to store water. Native plants can lessen water run off and flooding.
