Recommend reading “the secret life of trees” to learn about how important the diversity of forests is. The trees evolved to compete with each other, and as a result somewhat rely on the behaviors of old growth forests.
The arboretum near my house sells native plants for pretty cheap, I just bought a couple (although not the best time to be planting, but I put these in shaded areas and they’re doing ok so far)

This is the way! And it’s surprising how many gorgeous native species of flowers exist.
