Create a pollinator garden

From window boxes to gardens, every pollinator space counts.

One of the best things about gardening is attracting wildlife to your garden, especially pollinators. A pollinator garden can come in many sizes from, window boxes, patio planters, or a traditional outdoor garden. Helping your local pollinators involve more than just choosing the right plants. By grouping pollinator-friendly plants together, you’ll create a vibrant mix of colours, and insects will find it easier to gather the food they need. The more plants you have in your garden, the more you’ll enjoy visits from butterflies, bees, and other beneficial insects.
