If so, then our pollinator garden starter kits are for you. Our pollinator garden starter kits are specifically curated to take the stress, overwhelm, and uncertainty out of starting your first pollinator garden.
Pollinator Garden Starter Kits
We offer 2 pollinator garden starter kits – one for gardens in full sun and one for gardens in part sun. Each pollinator garden starter kit includes 18 plants representing 6 species that:
🌱 are native to Kentucky and Tennessee,
🌱 will grow well in medium moisture soil (what most people have in their yards),
🌱 tend not to grow much taller than about 3 feet,
🌱 are easy to grow and care for, and
🌱 will attract a wide range of pollinators and wildlife.
Once established, each pollinator garden starter kit will provide blooms from late April / early May through late September / early October.
