Gardening for Pollinators

Rocky Mountain Gardening Elective

We host countless beneficial insects and birds as well as bats. There are 963 species of native bees on Colorado's Front Range. All require your help to provide food, shelter and water to perform the huge task of pollinating the crops we eat, repopulate plants and add great diversity to our environment. How we can make our landscapes hospitable and attractive for these creatures? Learn which pollinators are attracted to which characteristics in certain plants, how to attract the ones you specifically want and how to select the perfect plants to do so. Also learn how to deal with the ones you do not want in your garden and how to accept a little insect pressure. This will inspire you to try new plants and watch your landscape come alive!
