We appreciate and approve of your interest in native plants! The Extension maintains several bulletin resources on Maine plants that can give you some great ideas for your needs:
Gardening to Conserve Maine’s Native Landscape (why it’s important)

Plants for the Maine Landscape (categorized for various sites)

Native Plants Source List (where you might find them)

There is information regarding size, habit, environmental needs, etc. that should allow you to narrow down your particular interests.
