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.

Is it the first time that the peach tree is fruiting? :)

Second, it fruited last summer mere months after planting. The 3 peaches we got then were delicious.

Grafted tree, I presume? If it can ripen all of the fruits this year, then it will have passed the test. Exciting things to come.

Grafted, yes. It was about a person high when I bought it. It has definitely spread its roots and grown 50% in height since. I'm pretty confident.
