June in a New Hampshire native garden
June is one of New Hampshire's busiest bloom months, with 72 of the state's 141 native plants flowering (the peak is May).
19 start blooming in June, including American bellflower, Black-eyed Susan and Bog rosemary. 33 finish in June, including American hazelnut, American holly and American mountain ash, so this is the last chance to see them in flower.
48 of them grow in full or partial sun and 57 tolerate shade, so there are options for open beds and woodland edges alike. Sizes run from low plants like Birdfoot violet and Black-eyed Susan to trees such as American basswood and American hazelnut. For wildlife, 54 support pollinators, 52 provide food or cover for birds and 31 are caterpillar host plants.
54 of the 72 have a seed or plant listing we verified as the wild species. Be careful buying Black-eyed Susan, Bog rosemary, Common yarrow: common listings for these are often a bred variety or a different species.
Good places to start
Verified wild-species listings that take sun and are widely native, so they are forgiving first plants.
