A brief description of the native plant program, policy, or practice:
The College'sdraft Sustainble Landscape Policy includes our current practice of using: " plants that are adaptable to the regional climate as well as specific site conditions. When selecting plants, native plants are given priority but are not used exclusively. In addition to adaptability to regional and site conditions, other factors in selection include plants that will survive with limited maintenance (e.g., watering, pest control) and plants that have been proven to be non-invasive."
