Gardeners love native plants, and for good reason. They are built to thrive in the conditions of a specific region, often without complaint, and are an essential component in the preservation of wildlife and the overall ecology of a region.

We asked qualified native plant experts from around the country to weigh in on which trees and shrubs they would recommend for specific conditions within a specified region. The following collection of articles details their favorite woodies for various different soil and light situations.
