🌿 Field Notes with Tiara 🌿

Native plants are naturally suited to our local climate, making them an important part of healthy, resilient landscapes. They can help conserve water, reduce erosion, and provide food and habitat for pollinators and other wildlife.

Plants like Texas lantana, cenizo, mealy blue sage, flame acanthus, little bluestem, and buffalograss are just a few native options that can benefit both your landscape and the surrounding ecosystem.

Learn more about native plants and find resources to help you get started at comalconservation.org/native-plants.
