Native Plants and Your Yard

Chances are, you are already at least somewhat familiar with the importance and power of native plants. They are one of our best options for having a meaningful and positive impact on our local environments, require lower maintenance and less water than lawns and other ornamental plants, and are simply beautiful in any yard. We want to get as many people planting with natives as possible!

The Power of the Native Plant Garden

So many native plant species, from the awesome milkweeds (Asclepias) and goldenrods (Solidago),
to coneflowers (Rudbeckia) and more, each offer so much to our native pollinators and other wildlife.
At My Home Park, we believe that yard beauty and habitat health come through biodiversity:

Stronger Together

Plants often want to grow together in nature. Each plant performs a set of unique jobs, collectively helping to retain moisture, insulate the soil, cycle nutrients, and sequester carbon. Our gardens bring the power of this diversity to your yard!

Better for Nature

You can think of your yard like a grocery store for pollinators, birds, and other beneficial wildlife. By adding multiple species of native plants, you’re essentially adding aisles of food and hours of operation to their menu!

Better for You

Our native plant gardens are conceived with an eye towards ecological support, but we have designed them to ensure that all of your plants establish themselves in a way that is as visually appealing to your neighbors as it will be for the bees and butterflies.
