Gardening with Native Plants Through the Seasons

From West Cook Wild Ones:

Take a journey through the seasons to discover native plants every gardener should try. These sophisticated and eye-catching plants are great for wildlife, grow well in a range of conditions and look beautiful in most gardens, including small and medium landscapes. Plus, they’re easy to find or purchase locally. You'll also learn design tips for each plant, and receive a helpful handout summarizing this information.

Denise Sandoval is the landscape designer and owner of Good-Natured Landscapes LLC, featuring native plants since 2005. She discovered the beauty and benefits of native plants after volunteering at the Russell Kirk Prairie, while finishing her horticulture degree in 2003. She immediately joined Wild Ones and served on the Greater DuPage Chapter board for many years. She worked several years at The Natural Garden native plant retail nursery which later closed, and as a Conservation@Home assistant for The Conservation Foundation. She gardens with native plants at home, creating her first of many rain gardens in 2004, and performing prescribed burns annually. Her greatest inspiration and teacher is the natural world.
