  1. #RockportME - #PollinatorFriendly Vs. #Ornamental Flowers

    April 8 @ 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM
    #RockportPublicLibrary

    "#Birds, #bats, #bees, #butterflies, #beetles, and other small mammals are integral pollinators whose natural activities sustain our ecosystems. However, many people fill their gardens with over-hybridized plant varieties that have been bred for their ornamental value. #DoubleBlooms, exotic species, and other engineered qualities — while pretty — create plants that are difficult for all pollinators and can be detrimental to local habitats when cultivated in large numbers (like pollenless sunflowers).

    "Maine Master Gardener Volunteer #JohnFromer will discuss varieties of flowering plants that are both beautiful and valuable to our local pollinators, give examples of non-pollinator friendly flowers, and provide tips for growing these in the #Midcoast region.

    "This talk is part of the Rockport Library’s Spring Horticulture Series in partnership with Merryspring Nature Center."
