Did you know that 1 out of every 3 bites of food you eat has been produced with the aid of pollinators?
The world needs pollinators. More than 80% of the earth’s plants require pollinators to reproduce. However, due to habitat loss and other factors, pollinators are declining, threatening all biodiversity.
In partnership with the Missouri Prairie Foundation Grow Native program, we would like to introduce you to Pollinator Buffet plants. This collection consists of a smorgasbord of 11 Missouri native species that are loaded with tasty delights for hummingbirds, butterflies, moths, bees, and other pollinators.
You can make a difference! Plant these native plants to support a healthy ecosystem and be rewarded with beautiful flowers, beautiful critters, and a more beautiful, healthier world.
Wild Bergamot, Smooth White Beardtongue, Slender Mountain Mint, Squaw Weed, Golden Alexander, Aromatic Aster, Blue Indigo, Smooth Hydrangea, Zig-zag Goldenrod, Showy Goldenrod, and Curlytop Ironweed.
