    Abstract
    In our society many people are familiar with native plants; unfortunately, those native plants will be pictured in the context of either being used in native prairies and other wild restoration projects or simply as out of control weeds. Many of today’s landscapes are highly manicured and require large amounts of manpower, water, chemicals and fertilizers in order to maintain them. Through educational presentations to various groups, I want to make people aware of the possibilities of using native plants in the modern landscape. By being used in this manner, native plants can offer many benefits to the individual homeowner as well as for the environment’s stability and the Earth’s sustainability.
