preservationists are interested in historic and environmental preservation at
Colonial period buildings in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place

list of plants that were in the colonial nursery trade that are also native to
<st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Maryland</st1:place></st1:State>. The
list of 31 species was obtained from checking all the 106 plants George
Washington obtained from John Bartram's Nursery with Brown and Brown and Asa
Gray to verify which ones are native to <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Maryland</st1:place></st1:State>. Landscaping with both historically
and environmentally sound choices is excellent. Notice that Japanese barberry
should be replaced with American barberry. The references
