Pollinator Patch
Our biggest Patch ever! We have added new seeds this season, including an edible surprise for our favorite pollinator (you!). Pollinator Patches are designed to bring bees, butterflies, and birds to your garden. Each variety is individually packaged so that you can plan out a design. These seeds can be started indoors or sown directly into the soil. They bloom from summer till frost. Most importantly, this patch will grow a gardener. Each kind of plant gives an example of different forms , colors, and growth characteristics. All the while being as easy to care for as sunflowers. A Blend of Zinnias, Sunflowers , Marigold, Giant Mixed Morning Glory, Red Amaranth, Royal Carpet, Gem Corn (for popping). They require no extra fertilizer and minimal amount of water after they are established.They also give an abundance of cut flowers, really the more you cut the more they bloom. The goal of these patches is to attract bees, butterflies, and birds. Giving them food and shelter. An excellent start at a back yard ecosystem.
