Learn how to Design a Naturalistic Pollinator Flower Garden
Love the new wilder gardens you see in magazines and Instagram? Me, too. If you’re wondering how to start it’s helpful to know that these naturalistic gardens are more than field meadows. They are not created by just not cutting your lawn.
It’s about a different way to think about planting design. How nature uses drifts and masses to colonize areas. How those drifts and masses interconnect to create a “wilder” look when you add native grasses. It’s about choosing plants for pollinators. Many native plants are already in your gardens, but probably as one here and one there.
