North Carolina's diverse vegetation and ecosystem are an important part of the state's appeal. Springtime marks the beginning of growth for the state as the Juneberry and Shadbush blossom. Native plants and trees such as the Dogwoods, Redbuds, and other fauna grow abundantly throughout the state. These numerous plants are an attractive element of North Carolina.
