Maypop Hill Nursery offers native plants and educational resources about gardening with native species. The nursery sells native plants, a book on southern landscaping, hosts presentations on topics like gardening for birds and wildflowers, and leads field trips around Baton Rouge. Planting natives helps birds by providing shelter in evergreen trees and shrubs, and a food source from fruits, seeds, and insects provided by plants like oak, pine, holly, blackberry, and sunflowers.
