Hi, guys! Please help me here... I saw in a book that certain fruit is native to certain country. I had always thought that the preposition that would follow native would be "from". Are both ok or is just from correct? Thanks!

Could you give some examples of each one, as a noun and as an adjective? It'll help a lot. Thanks!
