Plant Posters and Lists-Heather Holm

If you scroll down on the link you will see 6 posters with plants for different conditions. Below those posters you will see two very complete pdfs. One entitled Native Perennials for Bees and the other Native Trees and Shrubs for Pollinators. These are great!

These are our current recommended native plants that we believe will help your pollinator patches in the greatest way.
