Flora that is indigenous in the region, sometimes called old growth, heirloom or indigenous species. Native species requires less water and care than exotic imports, and usually attract more birds, bees and butterflies, and help the cycle of life stay in balance. You can indicate a master gardener, permaculturalist or horticulturalist or information center with this icon, as they can help everyone identify and care for the native plants. Rich with biodiversity, food forests are 'wilder' than orchards.
