Native wildflowers and grasses are so much easier to care for than other plants, they flourish with little or no effort. There root systems go much deeper than most other plants so they are virtually drought resistant. There are many varieties to choose from. Visit Ion Exchange to look at hundreds of species of native plants.

Mother Nature Doesn't Ask For Much.

Just like any other mom, she wants safe, healthy places for her young to survive and thrive.

You can lend a hand to Mother Nature this weekend by making your backyard wildlife-friendly Just provide the things that animals need most - food, water, shelter and places to raise
their families.
