New Hampshire
New Hampshire sits at the meeting point of northern hardwood forest and boreal influence, with mountains, lakes, wetlands, and a short but intense growing season. The most beneficial native plants here are those that support pollinators quickly in spring, sustain wildlife through long winters, and stabilize forest soils, slopes, and freshwater systems.
