Why native plants?

According to the The National Audubon Society:

Restoring native plant habitat is vital to preserving biodiversity. By creating a native plant garden, each patch of habitat becomes part of a collective effort to nurture and sustain the living landscape for birds and other animals.

I've always liked these and planted a few in a shady spot years ago. Didn't know at the time they were in anyway poisonous, but had never planned on eating them anyway. I miss having a yard to grow things in.

They really are lovely little things. The spring ephemerals are just great.
