Gardening with California Native Plants

California native plants may be used in virtually all garden designs and situations, and support native birds and insects.
Once established, and with an appropriate layer of mulch, many natives need little or no watering.

These native birds
and insects
use the Greenway’s
native plants for
food and shelter
