The pollinator garden was designed to demonstrate plants attractive to butterflies, bees and other pollinators. Plants were chosen for their blooms and a wide variety was included to ensure blooms throughout the spring, summer, and fall. We also included some plants, such as evening primrose, that would be attractive to moths.
