NATIVE THINKING:
Every plant is native to some place in the world. When it is moved beyond its normal range it is called an exotic. When a plant lives in its natural range and habitat it can grow and reproduce without outside aid. It is in balance with its surroundings. it is neither aggressive nor overpowered. In its own special place it is always a thing of great beauty.
