Landscape Alternatives, located in Shafer, MN, provides us with a diverse selection of Minnesota native flowers, grasses, ferns, shrubs, etc... Whether you're interested in rain gardens, boulevard planting, or just as an addition to your yard, we've got a wide variety outside at our store.
Here are some reasons to go native:
- Low maintenance, and thus lower cost maintenance for the future.
- Natives are perennials.
- Natives are resistant to insects and disease.
- No need to add chemicals or fertilizers, making your landscape decisions safer for you, your family, your neighbors, and, ultimately, the planet.
- Reseeds itself.
- Birds, butterflies, and other wildlife are attracted to natives and utilize the plantings for food and shelter.
Natives can be planted well into autumn, so you've still got a few more months.
If you'd like to check on a particular variety, give us a ring and we'll help you out.
