2Bee Happy Seeds
 Bee Happy Seed Collection – $12.00 A collection of flowers to attract and nurture bees in your garden.Have you ever noticed how many different types of bees there are in your garden? There are around 4000 native species of bees in the U.S.! In the home garden alone you might see small blue mason bees, green iridescent bees, black bees with wings like stained glass, leaf-cutter bees, and bumblebees. They are all important for crop pollination, and fascinating to watch in action. If you would like to support your local bee population, and “hire” more bees to work inside your garden, be sure to avoid using pesticides, and plant a wide variety of bee-friendly flowers and flowering herbs, such as the varieties in this collection. “Bee” sure to plant some near your vegetables to draw more bees to pollinate your crops. |
3Butterfly Banquet Seeds
Butterfly Banquet Collection – $18.00 Have you noticed the number of butterflies dwindling over the last few years? Just as honey bees are disappearing at an alarming rate, so are butterflies. Butterflies are a beautiful and important part of the ecosystem, helping to pollinate numerous plants, and in turn providing food for other species. Habitat loss is part of the reason for their decline. You can help the dwindling population by adding butterfly-friendly plants to your garden. This collection provides nine nectar plants for adult butterflies and two herbs that are host plants for butterfly caterpillars. |
