The research for this publication was funded by a summer scholarship from the Garden Club of America. The following numbers have been assigned for tracking and administrative purposes. Whether for beauty, drought tolerance, wildlife, or hardiness, homeowners in the arid west are beginning to look to natives as alternatives for their landscaping needs.

If youíre looking for a landscape filled with good looking, easy-to-maintain plants that are well adapted to our climate, then native plant material may be your best bet.
