April as Alabama Native Plant Month, recognized

HJR 84 is a ceremonial resolution recognizing April as Alabama Native Plant Month. It encourages all Alabamians to observe the month by removing invasive plants, planting native species (like Southern Magnolia and Longleaf Pine), and learning about native plants' ecological benefits. The resolution highlights how Alabama's native plants support local wildlife, improve soil health, and are adapted to the state's climate - without creating new laws or funding. As a non-binding resolution, it focuses on public awareness rather than policy changes.
