Naturescaping, a style of landscaping, centers around planting native flora and fauna to leave minimal impact on the environemtna and create a habitat for birds, butterflies and other local wildlife. Native plants are adapted to local soils and climates, whcih makes them much more likely to thrive with less water, fewer chemicals and reduced maintenance. Local plants are also more resistance to drought, erosion, insects and disease, and provide a practical and ecologically valuable alternative for landscaping, conservation and restoration projects.
