\"Coastal<\/a>
\nThe Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay feature 295 acres of diverse coastal ecosystems. Dramatic tidal shores are home to more than 300 native plant species and many exotic blooms.<\/p>\n

\n

\"Monarch<\/a>
\nMonarch butterflies, like many other important pollinators, are threatened by habitat loss associated with human development. Monarch butterflies are an indicator species. While they don\u2019t play a direct role in human food systems, Monarch butterflies help us estimate the health of an ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The Education Center serves as an educational tool, teaching visitors about the relationship between conservation and sustainability.<\/p>\n

\"Hydrangea<\/a>
\nWhile exotic blooms, such as this Hydrangea, are eye-catching, an abundance of exotic plants disrupts ecosystems. To promote biodiversity, the Maine Coastal Botanical Gardens cultivates native plant species.<\/p>\n
