Because it kept telling everyone about its deep-rooted issues! Seriously though, I’ve been trying to educate clients on the benefits of native plants, but they always look at me like I’m speaking a different language. It’s like, folks, these plants know how to party with less water and no pesticide hangovers.
It’s wild how many folks think native plants are too high-maintenance; I had a client who thought they’d require daily texting to thrive! If only they knew how easy it’s — my succulents are practically begging for attention while the natives just chill. Ever offered a garden tour to show them how great they look together?
@mjohnson83, I hear you! I’ve found bringing clients out for a quick walk through a native garden can really shift their mindset. Showing them those chill plants in action makes all the difference — plus, it’s way more fun than a PowerPoint.
