Ten species of trees, 8 are not native to North America, one is native to the U.S. southeast, and the other is a hybrid maple. Native trees are better adapted to our climate, less likely to get stressed, and fit in with local ecosystems and the animals that evolved with them. If the city doesn't want to provide native trees, maybe they'd give residents a $25 reimbursement if we bought our own. Well, a big BOO to the city of Dearborn.
