Sleep - Creep - Leap

Native plants take three years to establish themselves. 

• The first year - they sleep; growing roots and establishing themselves in the soil.

• The second year - they creep; slowly expanding their territory.

• The third year - they leap. 

See below for how native plants have progressed in our Parking Lot Garden.
