native plants

Long Island needs its native plants. Without them, we lose our local wildlife. Most of what is available for sale, however, are non-native. Non-native plants provide little sustenance for our local creatures. They weren't adapted to feed from them, that's our bees, or birds, or butterflies. Worse, we have to contend with invasive plants, some of which are still for sale here locally. Invasive plants actively destroy native habitat and hasten the departure of our local wildlife.
