Native prairie plants are the foundation of North America’s ecosystems. They provide food and shelter for pollinators, birds, and countless other wildlife species that evolved alongside them. Their deep roots help prevent erosion, improve soil health, filter water, and make them remarkably resilient to drought.

When we plant native prairies, we’re not just growing flowers—we’re helping restore a piece of the natural world that supports life all around us.

The ladybug on your tomato leaf has eaten thousands of aphids in her lifetime. Her larva — the black-and-orange alligator-shaped creature most people don't recognize — ate even more.

🌿 When threatened, she bleeds from her knee joints on purpose. The fluid contains alkaloids that taste terrible to predators. The bright red shell is a warning label that birds learn to avoid after one attempt.

Her wings fold underneath the shell using a mechanism so precise that engineers have studied it for spacecraft panel design. She opens them in a fraction of a second and closes them perfectly every time.

The garden's most recognizable insect is also the one most people know the least about 🐾
