I have a question though regarding you other flower beds. I am new to the business. Are you not encouraging pollinators throughout your cut flowers beds? If not, how do you keep pollinators away?
Thank you,
Dganit

We have a 1/4 cacre cut flower garden plan that’s included with the Floret Online Workshop. Enrollment for the workshop will open this October. You can learn more about it here: https://www.floretflowers.com/workshops/online-workshop/.

Thank you for this pollinator plan. Do you have a flowers, fillers, foliage combination plan for small area like 2000sqft land? I get so overwhelmed, I don’t know which ones to plant first. Thank you!

Towards the bottom of this post you can sign up for the Pollinator Strip Plan. It will automatically pull up on your web browser after clicking “Get the Plans”.

I hate when people take a picture and just say “bee friendly plants” because I want to know exactly what the plants are!! Love love love!!

Here in Minnesota, the honey bees and small native bees love Calamintha nepeta and Pycnanthemum muticum in my garden. Bumblebees like my penstamon. And I’ve noticed that my monardas attract the very largest bumblebees ever – guess they are the only ones with tongues long enough to access the nectar. And monarch really flock to my Meadow Blazing star (Liatris ligulistylis) in late summer – (this seeds everywhere which for me is a plus but might not be for everyone)

Gardening has been an important part of my life for many years in zone 5. I recently moved into a condo community in a new-to-me planting zone 10a. The back of our building faces a pond and gets full sun. It is currently planted sparsely with basic green shrubs. I would like to plant as many perennials as possible to use for cutting and feeding pollinators, while enjoying a beautiful garden outside of my lanai with as little maintenance as possible. This article is a tremendous help! While I know these plants are sun lovers, zone info would be helpful in future articles as well. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so freely with home gardeners like me and with retailers also. You truly are a gift to the gardening community!

Currently working to catch up on deferred maintenance, and add more cut flowers! Thankful for your resources – hoping to add more pollinator friendly plants around our orchard and berry patch.

I have raspberries, so would pollinators like lavender, daisies, zinnias help them?
