Wildflower Garden Guide by Watersheds Canada

Garden Guide

A wildflower garden is a visually spectacular, self-maintaining, low-cost garden that brings the beauty of nature to your backyard. Native wildflower species are easier, cheaper, and more ecologically beneficial than using non-native wildflower plants. They attract and protect native pollinator species, which play a critical role in natural ecosystems and human food production. Unfortunately, many pollinating species are declining due to habitat loss, climate change, and other factors, making it critical to preserve and create pollinator habitat wherever possible.
