Native Shrubs, Vines & Perennial Plants for Bird Friendly Communities
How Do Native Plants Create Bird-Friendly Communities?
Did You Know Native Plants ... ?
• Are hosts for native insects - the main food for baby birds
• Use less water than most non-natives once established
• Are better adapted to local climates
• Resist native pests and diseases better
• Often require less fertilizer, helping protect water quality
A native plant is one that occurs naturally in a particular habitat,
ecosystem or region without human introduction. It is well adapted
to that region’s soil, moisture and weather conditions. Native plants
are crucial for native wildlife: they provide food and shelter for 10 to
15 times more species of birds, butterflies and other native wildlife
than non-native plants. By planting native species that provide high
quality food sources, nesting habitat and shelter through all seasons
of the year, our backyards can serve as important refuges for birds
and a vast array of other wildlife.
New Canaan, CT
By following these “Audubon At Home” principles, we can
create healthier communities for both wildlife and people:
• Plant Native Species
• Remove Exotic Invasive Plants
• Conserve Water
• Protect Water Quality
• Eliminate or Reduce Pesticide Use
All plants need a little care after transplanting in order to develop
a healthy root system. Be sure to provide a bit of supplemental
water the first couple of growing seasons. Over time, you will
find that most natives, when planted in a favorable site, require
little additional attention.
We hope you enjoy your new garden additions!

Shrub & Vine Suggestions For Southern New England
Shadbush Serviceberry (Amelanchier canadensis) blooms in
early spring with a profusion of small white flowers. This tree is
adaptable to a wide variety of habitats, from wet swampy areas
to dry uplands. Shadbush (aka shadblow & Juneberry), grows
from 10 to 20 feet tall and flowers best in full sun. It suckers quite
freely. Hard red fruits ripen in June, providing an early summer
feast for many birds, including scarlet tanager, rose-breasted
grosbeak, American robin, hermit thrush, red-bellied and hairy
woodpecker, tufted titmouse, cedar waxwing, blue jay, and gray catbird.
Red Chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia) is a hardy shrub that grows
to about 8 feet in height, and half that in width. It can tolerate
both wet and dry soils. Full sun produces the most fruit. Nice
leaf color in the fall. It has small white flowers that produce
clusters of bright red berries later in the summer that attract
several birds, including wild turkey, black-capped chickadee,
eastern meadowlark, and cedar waxwing.
Sweet Pepperbush (Clethra alnifolia) grows 6 to 8 feet tall with very
fragrant white flowers in upright spires. Blooming in mid-summer,
sweet pepperbush is attractive to bees and butterflies. It likes damp
areas along the edges of swamps and streams and is perfect for
naturalizing these areas. It can thrive in other moist areas if kept
well watered during drought. It spreads from suckers, forming
thickets. In addition to the typical white-flowered shrub, we are
offering the variety ‘Ruby Spice’ which bears lovely deep pink
blooms. Acidic soil and full sun are preferred for both varieties.
Red Osier Dogwood (Cornus serciea) or red-twig dogwood is
a loose, spreading, multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub with a
rounded growth habit, 6-12 ft. tall. Dense flat-topped
clusters of creamy-white blossoms are followed by
umbrella-shaped clusters of pea-sized white berries.
Colorful foliage, good summer screen, conspicuous red
branches in winter. Good nesting habitat. Fruits attract
many birds including: wood ducks, eastern bluebirds,
cardinals, catbirds, grosbeaks, mockingbirds, orioles,
robins, yellow-bellied sapsuckers, scarlet tanagers,
cedar waxwings, and woodpeckers.
Winterberry (Ilex verticillata) ‘Red Sprite’ can grow 10 to 15 feet in height.
Its tiny white flowers bloom in June; you’ll need at
least one male plant to pollinate the female plants to
produce berries. Unlike other hollies, the dark green
leaves are deciduous and its bright red berries crowd
its bare winter stems, making a spectacular show. Winterberry is a plant of wet areas, but will do reasonably
well
under dry conditions. Acid soil is preferable,
and full sun will produce the most berries. It is a favorite of many bird species including American robin,
hermit thrush, eastern bluebird, yellow-bellied sapsucker, and white-throated sparrow.
• In the wild, many of these plants grow in the understory.
When planted in full sun, they tend to produce more flowers & fruit.
Trumpet Honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens) is a twining vine with round to oval
leaves. The lovely, tubular flowers make quite a show in late
spring to early summer and are a favorite of ruby-throated
hummingbirds. Prefers well-drained neutral soil. Encourage
vine to climb a trellis or other support. ‘Manifich’ is orange
with a clear yellow throat.
Virginia Rose (Rosa virginiana) is a native rose with lovely, fragrant, 2-inch pink
blossoms in June that turn to red rose hips in August. The fruit is edible and persists
on the canes through the winter. Plant grows 4 to 6 feet tall;
give it plenty of room since it spreads rapidly by suckering.
Established thickets provide protective cover and nesting sites
for birds. The nutritious hips provide winter/spring food for
wild turkey, brown thrasher, American robin, eastern bluebird,
northern mockingbird, northern cardinal, cedar waxwing, and
American goldfinch.
Lowbush Blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) is a wonderful
little groundcover that is not too fussy as to soil type. Grows
to about 18 inches tall, with shiny leaves. White urn-shaped
flowers in early summer produce small blueberries in August.
Birds known to enjoy the bonanza include wild turkey, scarlet
tanager, American robin, eastern bluebird, northern flicker,
gray catbird, blue jay, and orioles.
Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) is a 6 to 8 foot shrub with glossy
leaves that turn spectacular colors in the fall, including dark
mahogany. Though it grows in dry, open fields, it is happiest
in wet, boggy areas where soil is peaty and acidic. White urnshaped flowers in early summer produce delicious berries in
mid-summer that are loved by wild turkey, scarlet tanager,
most thrush species, black-capped chickadee, tufted titmouse,
gray catbird, blue jay, eastern towhee, and orioles.
Possumhaw Viburnum (Viburnum cassinoides), aka Witherod,
grows about 8 to 10 feet in height and produces flat-topped
clusters of small white flowers in early summer. Its fruits turn
from green to pink with purple centers to black as summer
progresses. Peaty damp soil is preferred; it can grow along the
edge of ponds in very wet conditions. Also adaptable to drier
soils. Wild turkey, brown thrasher, American robin, eastern
bluebird, northern cardinal, pileated woodpecker, and cedar
waxwing eat the fruits.
Cranberrybush Viburnum (Viburnum trilobum) ‘Wentworth’
grown in full sun can be quite spectacular when in bloom with
its showy white 3 to 4 inch wide flower clusters. This large
shrub grows 8 to 10 feet in height with a spread of about the
same. It has three lobed, shiny leaves and likes moist soil with
good drainage. Bright red fruit clusters mature in September
and can hang on the plant into the winter, providing food for
wild turkey, various thrushes, cedar waxwing, and northern

Flowering Plant Suggestions For Southern New England
Monarchs and other butterflies need
both nectar plants (to feed on along
their long journeys) and ‘larval host’
plants (for laying their eggs).
Audubon is selling all three types of
milkweed, each suitable for sandy,
moist or wet soils.
A few great pollinator websites
accepting ‘citizen scientists’:
Monarch Watch:
www.monarchwatch.org
Bumble Bee Watch:
www.bumblebeewatch.org
The Great Sunflower Project:
www.greatsunflower.org
The Lost Ladybug Project:
www.lostladybug.org
The amazing Monarch butterfly depends
on its ability to find milkweed plants
whereas it is the only plant genus upon
which they lay eggs. Over 21-28 days,
the new caterpillars hatch, feed, develop
into a chrysalis, hatch out, and fly away.
Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is a perennial
herb that grows to a height of 2-6 feet. It grows in sandy
and loamy soils in full sun. Its purple flowers attract
milkweed beetles, bumble bees, and other bees. Its
seeds can be collected in fall after the pods open and
immediately sown on the new location.
Swamp Milkweed (Asclepias incarnata) is a native, perennial wildflower
growing 3-6 feet tall. Bright pink, white and purple
clusters of flowers appear in summer at the tops of the
stems. As its name would suggest swamp milkweed
grows in moist or wet soil; it prefers a sunny location,
although it tolerates partial sun. Native bees, butterflies,
and other pollinators are attracted to the flowers.
Butterfly Milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa) is a 1-3 foot tall
perennial that has striking yellow and orange flowers
that are attractive to many insect species, including
milkweed beetles, many native bees, butterflies, and
hummingbirds. It grows in full sun or part shade and
tolerates moist to dry soil.
Hollow Joe Pye Weed (Eupatorium fistulosum) is a 5-10
foot tall perennial that grows in moist, rich soil in full
sun or partial shade. Its huge, domed flower head is
composed of several branches bearing tiny pinkishlavender florets. Honey bees, bumble bees, other native
bees, and butterflies visit the flower heads for nectar
and pollen. Swamp sparrows eat the seeds.
Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) is an erect 2-4 foot
perennial with pale purple to pink flowers that grows
in full to partial sun. It will do well in a range of soil
types from sandy to loamy and dry to wet. Bees,
butterflies, and hummingbirds use the plant for nectar.
New England Aster (Symphyotrichum novae-angliae) is
a native perennial which grows from 2½ to 6 feet tall
with individually stalked flower heads that have bright
pink to purple, petal-like ray flowers surrounding a
central yellow disk. It grows in moist soil with partial
shade. Bees, butterflies, flies, beetles, and moths are
drawn to its nectar and pollen.
New York Ironweed (Vernonia noveboracensis) is a tall,
clump-forming perennial, growing 5-8 feet in height
in sun or partial sun. In the wild it grows in moist soil;
under cultivation it will flourish in regular or dry soil.
Branching stems bear a cluster each of reddish-purple
flowers at the ends of branched flat-topped clusters.
Butterflies, bees, and other pollinators are attracted to
the flowers and birds to the seeds.
Cutleaf Coneflower (Rudbeckia laciniata) is a sunflowerlike perennial growing 3-6 ft. tall in moist soil with any
light conditions. Each flower is 3-4 in. across, with coneshaped, greenish-yellow centers and back-tilted golden
rays. The center cones elongate and become brownish as
the seeds ripen. It has been called a “pollinator magnet”
that attracts butterflies, bees, wasps, and flies. Birds will
eat the seeds.
• All of the plants in the Audubon plant sale provide for the needs of butterflies, moths, native bees, hummingbirds, and others.
