Native Plants have evolved naturally, growing in your area, and find its’ soil and climate home. Plants from seed sources closest to your site will survive best, having adapted these local soil and climate conditions.
*1) For increased plant survival ask for plants/seed with origin from EcoDistrict 37 (7E-3 and 7E5)
2) Order plants by scientific name to ensure native species, and
3) Ensure plants are not endangered or threatened. These plants require very specific areas only.
4) Check the NPCA Native Plant Guide for Native Niagara Plant Species
