Why Do Pollinators Matter?

Pollinators, like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, play a critical role in our ecosystem. As they flit from flower to flower, they transfer pollen and enable plants to reproduce. Pollinators ensure a healthy and diverse plant population. Unfortunately, pollinator populations are declining due to habitat loss and pesticide use.

While you wait to see if you’ve won the giveaway, here are some additional ways you can create a pollinator-friendly haven:

• Plant a variety of flowering plants: Choose blooms that offer nectar and pollen throughout the season, catering to different pollinator preferences. Learn more about pollinator-friendly gardens.
• Think local, plant local: Native plants are adapted to your region’s climate and pests, and they’ll naturally attract the local pollinator population. For more information about native plant design, come visit our garden center and talk with a member of our staff.
• Reduce pesticide use: These chemicals not only harm pollinators directly, but also kill the insects they rely on for food. Opt for natural pest control methods to keep your garden healthy and safe for pollinators.
• Provide shelter: Create a habitat for pollinators by including rocks, logs, or small water features in your garden.
• Share the knowledge: Encourage your neighbors to create pollinator-friendly spaces as well. The more blooms available, the better for these vital creatures.

By participating in the Monrovia Pollinator Plant Giveaway and incorporating these tips, you can contribute to a healthier ecosystem and enjoy a thriving, colorful garden buzzing with life. Let’s work together to ensure a bright future for our essential pollinators!
