Did you know that an oak tree grows and feeds far more butterflies and moths than any blooming wildflower? And that the ideal foods for songbirds can be planted in your yard, not offered from a bird feeder? Learn why our native trees and shrubs are the backbones of healthy habitats for pollinators, birds and other wildlife, and which species are best suited to add year-round beauty to your home landscape environment.
