5 Awesome Native Plant Garden Signs

Have you worked hard to make your native plant garden a reality? Time to celebrate by making your garden official with a native plant garden sign!

A beautiful sign not only makes your garden feel special, it can also help spark conversations with neighbors about the importance of growing local plants in our own yards.

Here are some of my favorite signs for native plant gardeners, whether you are just starting your garden or have a full fledged certified wildlife habitat!

1. Native Plant Garden Sign

I designed these native plant signs for you as part of my Native Backyards Etsy shop! This 9″x12″ metal sign shows that a native garden is filled with pollinators and birds. By being a native plant gardener, you are choosing plants not based solely on how they look, but also what they do to help support insects and wildlife.

Whether you have a front yard full of native species or just are just starting to garden with natives, a sign can help educate others about your conservation efforts and encourage them to join in.

2. Personalized Native Plant Garden Sign

I also offer a personalized version of the native plant signs. You can add your name, state, or any other text you like.

These personalized garden signs are a great option not only for your own yard, but for community gardens and demonstration gardens as well.

5. Native Plant Labels for Your Garden

Another great addition to your native plant garden are individual plant markers. These can help others learn about the specific native plant species you are growing and the wildlife benefits they are offering!

I love these sturdy galvanized metal plant signs used by the demonstration gardens where I volunteer. These 18″ tall signs have an opening for a 4″ x 5″ paper label that you can swap out as needed. The plant label can include helpful information such as the scientific name, sunlight needs, and wildlife benefits.
