The May/June issue of DesignSTL presents the native plant landscapes of Krystal and Steve Coxon, which include the front yard gardens installed in 2019, when they won the Landscape Challenge. The beautiful photos and text celebrate the wide variety of life and learning the native plants provide for the Coxons’ three children and themselves.
In April 2020, DesignSTL featured the native plant landscapes of chapter members Sue and Andy Leahy. That equally inspiring article and photos can be found here
From Krystal:Thank you to Wild Ones for recommending our native plant garden to St Louis Magazine’s DesignSTL. The kids loved showing the photographer our garden and all of the birds, bees and butterflies that visit as well as being interviewed about what they love most in the garden.
While I wish the article had included my praise of Wild Ones and mentor Sue Leahy, I’m certain that it is encouraging others to plant natives because I’ve received several requests for seedlings as a direct result.
Scroll down to the last article titled “Wild Things” to read the article in Design STL Magazine Online and see some amazing photos or pick up a copy at your local convenience store.
