A brief description of the native plant program, policy, or practice:
Penn prioritizes the use of native plant species in landscaping. The University Landscape Architect always tries to plant as many native plants as possible, as they are adapted to our region and tend to grow well here. They improve our natural ecosystem, tend to require less water and low maintenance, and provide food and habitat for pollinators and other wildlife.
