Abstract

There is a vast source of native plants in prairies and other natural areas with landscaping potential that could be planted for beautification in backyards, land restoration projects, and roadsides. Native plants maintain biological diversity necessary to provide food and cover for wildlife. Diversity also increases tolerance to diseases, pests, and climate extremes.
