- Likelihood for success of the garden.
2. How the garden supports the mission of the Landscaping with Colorado Native Plants Conference.
(The Landscaping with Colorado Native Plants Conference promotes the inclusion of
native plants in our landscaping to benefit pollinators and songbirds, save water, and
restore the beauty and health of nature in the places we live, work and play. While we
recommend the use of straight species and local ecotypes wherever possible, we
support the use of varieties and cultivars of native species as long as their breeding
doesn’t interfere with their ability to function in nature and maintain key relationships
with pollinators and other lives.).
3. Education/outreach value of the garden.
