Creating a Pollinator-Friendly Perennial Garden

Choose a sunny spot for your garden with well-draining soil. Select a variety of native perennial plants that attract pollinators like bees and butterflies.

Avoid using pesticides in your garden as they can harm pollinators. Instead, opt for natural pest control methods like companion planting and handpicking pests.

Plant a mix of flowers that bloom at different times to provide food for pollinators throughout the growing season. Include a mix of colors and shapes to attract a diverse range of pollinators.

Provide water sources like a shallow dish with rocks for butterflies and bees to drink from. Consider adding a bird bath or small pond for other wildlife to enjoy.

Maintain your garden by deadheading flowers, removing weeds, and dividing plants as needed. Monitor for pests and diseases, and address any issues promptly to keep your garden healthy.

Enjoy watching the pollinators visit your garden and the beauty of your blooming perennial plants. Sit back, relax, and appreciate the vibrant ecosystem you've created.
