Why Natives?

Native plants are the foundation of healthy Oklahoma ecosystems. Naturally adapted to our local soil, climate, and seasons, Oklahoma native plants provide essential food and habitat for native bees, butterflies, birds, and other wildlife.

Unlike many ornamental plants, native flowers and grasses have evolved alongside local pollinators and wildlife. They help support biodiversity, improve soil health, and create more resilient landscapes while bringing beauty and seasonal interest to your garden.

At Auntie B’s Garden, we believe everyone can make a difference, whether you have acres of land or a few pots on your patio. Even a small collection of native Oklahoma wildflowers and pollinator-friendly perennial plants can provide valuable habitat for local wildlife.

We offer beautiful, approachable ways to bring native and pollinator-friendly plants into your home and garden. Our goal is to help Edmond and the greater Oklahoma City area become greener, more biodiverse places to live.

You don’t need a prairie to make a difference. Sometimes, all it takes is one plant.

Native plants are species that naturally occur in a particular region and have evolved alongside its wildlife, soil, and climate. Oklahoma native plants provide important food and habitat for local pollinators, birds, and other wildlife. They’re a beautiful way to support biodiversity right in your own backyard!

Not at all! Many native plants are wonderfully resilient once established. They’re adapted to Oklahoma’s growing conditions, and we’ll help you choose plants that suit your space and experience level. You don’t have to be an expert to grow something wonderful.

Native flowering plants can attract an incredible variety of wildlife, including native bees, butterflies, moths, hummingbirds, fireflies, and beneficial insects. Different plants support different species, which is why planting a variety of flowers throughout the growing season is so valuable.

Absolutely not! Many native perennials grow beautifully in containers. A patio, balcony, porch, or even a sunny doorstep can become a little oasis for pollinators. Every bit of habitat helps!

Auntie B’s Garden is a Paint & Plant studio serving Edmond and the greater Oklahoma City area. We combine creative expression with a love of gardening and environmental stewardship. Unlike a traditional paint studio, you’ll leave with something you created and a living plant to nurture. We believe art and nature should be accessible to everyone!

It’s part creative workshop, part gardening adventure! You’ll choose a pot, paint and decorate it to make it uniquely yours, then select a beautiful plant to take home. We provide all the painting and planting supplies. You provide the creativity!
