While working on my graduation thesis at the natural sciences faculty, this is exactly what we studied: the usage of autochthon plants as a replacement for garden varieties in an urban context
Thats super cool! I’m sure folks here will be very appreciative should you share your knowledge with us ☺️ regardless, we’re happy to have you in this community
The best part about it is that I’m no universal expert, I just know plants that are indigenous in the place I live in (northern Italy).
If you guys are interested you can find plenty of literature on the internet, or you can simply walk around unkept fields in spring and select plants you like the most. The ones I always suggest are those from the Ericaceae family, since they can be found pretty much worlwide, are really low maintainance and have beautiful flowers that are a beacon for bees and other pollen insects.

Edit: grammar correction
what is authocton? google didnt know.
I think they meant this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autochthon
Yeah, mispelled: english not first language. "H"s in scientific terms are always a struggle
No worries! You taught me a new word and English IS my first language 😄
