Native perennial plants are naturally adapted to the specific climate, soil, and environmental conditions of their native region. As a result, they often require less water and soil amendment compared to non-native species. Native perennial plants also typically have deep root systems that help stabilize soil and reduce erosion.
While native perennial plants are generally low-maintenance once established, it's important to note that they may still require some care, especially during the establishment period. Proper site selection, soil preparation, and initial watering are important for ensuring successful establishment. Additionally, periodic maintenance tasks such as pruning, dividing overcrowded plants, and removing spent foliage may be needed to keep some native perennial plants looking their best.
