Planting native plants is one of the best things you can do as an individual for our local wildlife. As many can attest to, there is much to learn, starting with learning what is “Native”. This question will inevitably lead you towards a map. A map might show nativity through highlighted states, or dotted counties. Sometimes colors and an associated legend make an appearance. Although simple, these range maps provide important and influential information for scientific researchers and gardeners alike.
