Why native plants?
According to the The National Audubon Society:
Restoring native plant habitat is vital to preserving biodiversity. By creating a native plant garden, each patch of habitat becomes part of a collective effort to nurture and sustain the living landscape for birds and other animals.

Been loading up on milkweed seeds and have managed to obtain some that are not in my native bioregion of North carolina.
Are you, dear reader, living in a place where these are native? I will mail them to you. Check these images and leave a comment, I will DM you.
WARNING: For anyone considering. Milkweed is specifically banned in some areas based on old laws considering it a noxious weed (despite being native). Check with your county/city enforcement. Mine allows me to grow it in the backyard but fines people growing it in the front.
I say we go ahead and ban oak trees, do you see all those little annoying acorns they drop in the street? Ridiculous. Cut them all down. I'd advocate for burning every plant except for nandina and mimosa but some will say that I go too far... Some people constantly in the way of progress.
And apple trees! Definitely ban those. People can just come up and take food? Darn socialism!
I bet there's also other disgusting whore fruit that gives itself away for free to hungry people. Burn it all.
