1 COMMON NATIVE PLANTS What are native plants? Native plants are plants that evolved to survive in a given area - in our case, Indiana. This is their home, so to speak, so they are responsible for attracting and providing habitat for wildlife, including important pollinators like butterflies and bees. Native planting areas can be butterfly gardens, hummingbird gardens, or colorful plantings along the shores of retention ponds and streams. Rain gardens use native plants in strategically-located, small depressions that intercept and hold rain water runoff that flows from roofs, driveways, patios, or lawns. In rain gardens and native planting areas, the soil and plants filter pollutants, slow storm water down, and allow much of it to slowly soak into the soil, recharging our ground water supplies and reducing storm water runoff volumes and pollutant loads to nearby streams. This guide will help you choose the plants that will work best in our Indiana environment. It is not an exhaustive list, and you can learn more from books and the internet. And remember: a thriving native garden can outcompete weeds very effectively, but there s no such thing as a no maintenance garden. Spend some time pulling weeds every week, and you will have a beautiful garden to enjoy.
2 This symbol denotes a good rain garden plant. Some plants can tolerate longer wet periods than others, so do a little homework to understand where in your rain garden basin to locate them. Sideoats grama Bouteloua curtipendula 1-3 ft. tall including seedheads Seedheads form in summer Blue-green leaves turn purple or red in fall Likes well-drained soils Birds love the seeds Does not compete well with taller grasses but often found with little bluestem Switchgrass Panicum virgatum Perennial grass ranging from 3-5 ft tall in a large clump Seedheads emerge July-August; reddish purple in color Fall color of leaves is a bright yellow Common grass found in native prairies Indian Grass Sorghatrum nutans Perennial grows up to 3-8 ft. including the seedeads Seedheads form in fall Blue-green blades during growing season; deep orange fall color Commonly found in tall grass prairies Sedges (several varieties) Carex spp. Most are topped with unique flower heads that make sedges easy to identify, 1-2 ft tall Superficially resemble grass, but have distinctive triangular stems Associated with wetlands; perform a number of services including water quality improvement Widely distributed throughout the world, Native Indiana species include Fox Sedge, Frank s Sedge, Burr Sedge, and Riverbank Tussock Sedge
