Natives

4 ½” deep color-coded pots, 10 count trays. 

More is more when it comes to pollinator habitat, so we buffed our native selection to give you and your insect friends greater options.  If the goal is to have a number of different items blooming at any given time, planting multiple species in a genus is a great way to extend the season.  We have a very robust and diverse offering of natives.  Whenever possible, we tried to add a compact species to better fit a city-sized yard. This year we have added the lovely and elegant summer blooming Verbena hastata Blue Vervain - a host plant for the Common Buckeye Butterfly and it's a general pollinator magnet. Their tiny seeds offer our winter bird residents a food source. Traditional herbal uses include relaxation, respiratory and digestive support. 

 

Pollinator habitat advocates recommend the 3x3 guideline to support your local bees and butterflies. That’s three (or more) natives that bloom in each of three seasons. (spring, summer, autumn)  Remind folks that larger groupings of fewer varieties will make it easier for the pollinators to find them than the “one of everything” look, and that a native shrub like Button Bush can provide as much forage as a small garden. We get that establishing a native planting can be an exercise in patience for folks used to the instant gratification of annuals, so our natives are tough, well-rooted, and ready to go, as most of them are already at least one year old.
