InCheck™ Non-Invasive Plant Program
More and more people are becoming aware of invasive plants and the problems they pose for both the environment and for plant management. But plant invasiveness is a vast topic, one that is difficult for industry professionals to have a solid grasp on, never mind homeowners and gardeners. That's why, in the same spirit as our Deer Proof™ collection, we’re pleased to introduce the InCheck program: flowering shrub varieties that set little to no seed, may be sterile and are non-invasive.
The InCheck designation will appear on tags of each of these plants, alongside the common name, so it’s clear that these are varieties gardeners can feel confident buying. After all, even if a species isn’t invasive in an area, no one wants to deal with extra seedlings if they can help it, so these varieties will also appeal to those seeking low-maintenance landscaping.
