Illinois tells HOAs to stop banning native plants in yards Go go Illinois! Great news for prairies and butterflies like monarchs. A new law passed last week “Provides that an association shall not prohibit any resident or owner from planting or growing Illinois native species on the resident’s or owner’s lawn …”

This is a great follow-up to the state’s 2017 laws banning cities and counties from outlawing milkweed (monarch butterflies’ essential food).
