WHAT ARE SOFT LANDINGS?
WHAT ARE SOFT LANDINGS?
Soft landings are diverse native plantings under keystone trees (or any other regionally appropriate native tree). These plantings provide critical shelter and habitat for one or more life cycle stages of moths, butterflies, and beneficial insects such as bumble bees, fireflies, lacewings, and beetles. In addition to plants, soft landings also include leaf litter, duff, and plant debris. (Source: pollinatorsnativeplants.com)
