The document is a gallery of California native plant species suitable for gardens in Southern California. It consists of a table that lists the plant name, common name, and links to individual information sheets and photo galleries for each species. There are over 80 plant species listed, along with notes on some being suitable for Western Los Angeles County gardens or being the subject of past "Plant of the Month" features on the blog "Mother Nature's Backyard." The document provides resources for learning about California native plants and selecting appropriate species for Southern California gardens.
