6 Plants to Rip Out of the Garden Right Now, And the Beautiful Natives That Look Even Better 🌿👇
Some of the most popular plants sold at garden centres every spring are quietly destroying local ecosystems one garden at a time.
They spread by seed, runner, and root into wild areas beyond the garden fence. They crowd out the native plants that local birds, bees, and butterflies depend on for survival. Several are already banned in multiple US states — yet still sold legally at many retailers.
The good news is that every invasive plant has a beautiful native alternative that looks just as stunning, requires the same or less maintenance, and actually feeds the wildlife that visits the garden.
