[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To grow, to look at, to smell, just in general? To grow: zinnias, peonies, tulips. To look at: orchids, dahlias, tulips, peonies. To smell: orchids, roses, peonies, tulips, gardenias. To see in gardens: perennial phlox, peonies, tiger lilies, lilacs. To feel dreamy and nostalgic about: morning glories, dahlias, tiger lilies, old roses. People with sterile yards, who don’t have anything that blooms in their yards, ever, confuse me. Meanwhile I’m over here trying to figure out if my neighborhood would tolerate a bee yard. [/quote] I have a certified polinator and bird habitat on my 1/3 acre. I have an incredible amount of native bees growing and feeding on my plants (aromatic asters and oakleaf hydrangea are their favorite). For butterflies, I have host and nectar plants for monarch, pipervine swallowtail, tiger swallowtail, giant swallowtail, mourning clock, viceroy, buckeye, tons of skippers, painted lady etc. A bluebird male found and took over my first bird nest box and is looking for a girlfriend. A hummingbirds is nesting in the spring in an oak. I can't imagine a yard without life. [/quote]
