@simonecannon.bsky.socialThe West Indian #Lantana ‘Lantana camara’ is native to the tropics, so is best planted in #garden pots in the UK for some bright summer colour. Its nectar heavily attracts butterflies and bees, but it is not cold tolerant below 5°C to 10°C (41-50F) #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Pollinator #Gardening
@bjerz.bsky.socialI visited a #pollinator garden today in northern California and was delighted to find a number of #Monarch #butterflies flitting about the large blossoms of some very tall Zinnias. Here is one who stayed still for at least 100 photos. 🦋😊

@coleshoot.bsky.socialWe need to help our pollinators, so it's always a good day to see bees drinking from goldenrod flowers.
