Why Choose Purple Pollinator Paradise?
This carefully curated collection brings together bold blooms and resilient plants designed to provide overlapping bloom times from spring through fall. It ensures a continuous food source for local wildlife while painting your landscape in vibrant, striking purple tones with minimal upkeep.
Planting Tips:
- Location: Plant in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil.
- Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Require less water once established.
- Maintenance: Minimal care required. There's no need to deadhead the flowers, as allowing them to go to seed provides a valuable food source for birds. Leaving the stems standing in the fall offers overwintering sites for beneficial insects. If desired, cut back the stems in late spring after pollinators have emerged. Avoid spraying pesticides that harm monarch caterpillars.
