Louisiana Native Plant Nurseries

A Louisiana native plant nursery is a plant nursery that only grows native plants indigenous to Louisiana. Native plant nurseries primarily produce and propagate native plants with the intention to restore and replenish the diversity of native flora. In Louisiana, these nurseries are a source of plants used for wetland and coastal restoration projects. Nurseries provide a controlled environment that is ideal for plant research for ecosystem restoration. The resulting information from plant research can be used to develop better strains of specific species. Cloning these strains of plants insures the quota for a restoration project is successfully met.〔http://www.nwrc.usgs.gov/factshts/090-03.pdf〕
==Background==
Generally, a plant nursery is a facility that produces and propagates a variety of plants for various purposes. Commonly, plant nurseries grow non-native plants and native plants for urban landscapes.
Louisiana native plant nurseries not only provide plants for restoration projects but also provide plants for the home garden. A garden that consists of native plants is much easier to maintain. Native plants in their native environment require little to no additional nutrients, water, or pesticides. Native plants have evolved over time with their environment (e.g., soil) using the resources that are naturally available. Louisiana may not be able to provide the necessary amount of water or nutrients for a non-native plant, which in turn will need additional resources, maintenance, and attention in order to properly grow.
Unfortunately, native plants, a vital part of the natural web of life, are being lost at an alarming rate. There are real and practical pay-offs to encouraging a more biologically diverse yard. Healthy, balanced ecosystems clean our water and our air.〔http://nativeplantsocietyneohio.org/importance.htm〕 Native plant nurseries encourage gardeners to use native plants to promote local biodiversity. The Louisiana Native Plant Society is a good source to find a retail nursery nearest to you or for more general information about native plants of Louisiana.〔http://www.lnps.org/〕
