Behnke BaySafe® Plants are native plants. They are signed with a distinctive blue logo. To qualify, a plant must be native to Maryland or be a cultivar (a horticultural variety) of a native plant. Native plants are critical for the environment. Many serve as food sources for native insects, which in turn are food sources for birds and other animals. In addition, since native plants are welladapted to our local climate and native soil, they will require less care than many non-natives.
