can actually help by NOT rushing to the nearest plant nurseries for the instant exotic show stoppers but by planning early in the year to sow and grow more of our naturally occurring plants.

4/4
Insects tell us which flowers they prefer .. here are 3 yellow flower on April 2nd on my #allotment.
Flower number 3/4 may be lovely 2 human eyes but it is always empty .. no sweet nectar or nutritious pollen—or any number of things that pollinators like.

This one small hump of #WildMarjoram is a real haven for butterflies, moths, hoverflies & other flies, flower beetles + tiny creatures such as ants, aphids & spiders. In turn they help feed our birds, esp in the nesting season.
Please #grow4insects!
You might see the meetings of little gems!
They need us to #Grow4Insects not 4 our eyes now!
