Many groups such as state
agencies, park districts, municipalities, golf courses,
schools and individuals are realizing the many benefits of
landscaping with native plants. Even the federal government
is promoting natural landscaping with native plants around
the Vice President’s mansion. The state of Illinois
has used native plants to landscape along major roadways and
at rest stops for many years. Even some of the traditional
gardens around the state Capitol building in Springfield
were replaced with native plants.
