EPA Level I Region
Eastern Temperate Forests covers most of the country east of the Great Plains, from New England and the Great Lakes down through the Appalachians to the Gulf and west into east Texas. It is the broadest of the ten regions and the wettest, with rain spread through the year and deciduous forest as the default cover. Natives like purple coneflower, black-eyed Susan, and oakleaf hydrangea are at home across much of it, though what actually belongs in your yard narrows considerably once you get down to your own ecoregion below.
Ecoregions inside it: 33. Native range is set at that finer level, so start there rather than here.
Pick the one that covers your yard. Each has its own plant list, conditions, and maintenance notes.
These ecoregions do not have their own page yet. The full plant library covers them in the meantime.
Pollinator Patch resolves your ZIP to its ecoregion and builds a front-yard plan tuned to the soil, climate, and HOA expectations where you actually live.
