1. Native plants reduce carbon footprint because they are locally grown and obtained

2. Native plants restore the natural ecosystem

3. Native plants offer beauty throughout the seasons

4. Native plants discourage soil erosion

6. Native plants are often less predated by deer

7. Native plants are often less susceptible to weather vagrancy

8. Native plants support native bird populations
