    Great info Maureen. My fav pollinator is balsams. They reseed themselves every year & you can eat those seeds & the leaves. 2nd place-marigolds.

    Ohhh that’s excellent to know. I had a balsam, but we had a weird cold snap in the spring and she just could cope with the weathers mixed signals. Sadly o didn’t start another one.

    Great video packed with lots of good information 🥰 I love all the things you mentioned but would add chives. They deter deer, rabbits, unwanted pests and attract all the beneficial pollinators.

    I love this video!! I wanted more plants, now I know which ones I want😂 In my garden I have Sun flowers, borage, alyssum and marigold, zinnia and some nasturtium that is still so tiny! And in my new flower bed, I have calendula, hollyhock, some of the others and bee balm. As I understand, it's in the mint family😂
