Why native plants?

Native plants have evolved to thrive in our local climate. They require less water and less maintenance than many of our introduced ornamental plants while also providing the specialized food, shelter, and other resources
that our native pollinators and wildlife need to survive.

Native plants are beautiful!

There is an abundant selection of spectacular native plants waiting for you to discover their beauty. With colours, textures, shapes, and sizes of every kind, there are native plant options for every garden.

Did you know?

Habitat loss is one of the greatest threats to BC’s biodiversity. By cultivating native plants in your garden, you can create habitat for pollinators and other wildlife.
