> *Why Use Native Plants?*
>
>    - They grow with minimal use of water, fertilizers, and pesticides.
>    - Wildlife species have evolved with these plants and use them as
>    their habitat.
>    - They are adapted to local soil, rainfall, and temperature conditions.
>    - They have developed natural defenses to many insects and diseases.
>    - Using native plants helps preserve the balance and beauty of natural
>    ecosystems.
