NOTE: Every site is different. We encourage you to adapt this plan to your own site. If you have a specific condition, we can help connect you to resources. There is a native plant for almost all conditions! Remember, it’s a learning process. Plants are kind of like people, you need to get to know them to understand what they need to be happy!
