THE NATURAL LANDSCAPING ALTERNATIVE:
An Annotated Slide Collection - Slide 13
While few natural landscaping projects could be characterized as
ecological restoration, the introduction of multiple native plant
species provides improved habitat supporting increased biodiversity,
including butterflies, birds, as well as aquatic plants and animals.
Such areas are valuable in themselves, but they also can provide
buffers around more sensitive natural areas. In addition, they can
restore continuity of habitat that has been lost through the
fragmenting impacts of urban development.
