The Midwest native plant primer : 225 plants for an earth-friendly garden / Alan Branhagen.

Branhagen, Alan, (author.).

Summary:

A native plant is defined as one that grew wild in a particular area prior to settlement by Europeans. If you live in the Midwest, choosing plants native to the region will benefit you, your yard, and the environment by reducing maintenance tasks, and attracting earth-friendly pollinators such as native birds, butterflies, and bees. Branhagen inspires readers to include native plants in their home gardens and landscapes.
