If you’re thinking of adding wildflowers to your landscape, start with easy species. Based on the Florida Wildflower Foundation’s popular publication, this talk will present easy-to-grow native wildflowers that attract a variety of butterflies and other pollinators essential to Florida’s natural health. Learn each plant’s flowering, seeding and growing conditions, which ones are larval hosts for butterflies, and others that provide nectar and pollen. Experience summer bloomers in Sunken Gardens’ Pollinator Garden before or after this talk. Talk is free with Gardens admission or membership. No pre-registration required. Held in the Garden Room.
