Perfect Pollinator Garden Flowers (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This informative and entertaining ebook combines my three earlier published ebooks about growing beautiful high-nectar garden flowers to attract bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. Those ebooks are Bee-loved Garden Flowers, Hummingbird Garden Flowers, and Great Garden Flowers for Butterflies.

An interest in attracting and protecting bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies has increased recently. The reason for this concerns the steady decrease in population and observation of these essential pollinators in our gardens and the wild. The reason for the decline is uncertain, but most agree it has to do with environmental problems like pesticides, habitat loss, and depletion of food sources.

This enhanced ebook provides information on flowers that can attract and increase the population of these pollinators. You can easily purchase these flowers in nurseries and garden centers, and if you are a more experienced gardener, you can grow them from seed.

We currently experience many problems, so why should we be concerned about these pollinators? The obvious answer is based on the act of pollinating. Flower gardening is not the ultimate rescue attempt to increase populations of these pollinators. What is important is these pollinators also ultimately pollinate our food-based plants, such as fruit and vegetables. We must support our honeybees, bumblebees, and small solitary bee populations.

What would the world be like without the beauty of butterflies fluttering above beds of colorful flowers or being amazed at the shimmering feathers and avionic skills of hummingbirds? These pollinators are "flying art" to admire and wonder at. Are they less valuable in our attempt to preserve and enhance their numbers? The answer is a definite no!

Every nectar-enriched flower is vital in maintaining the health of each pollinator, and we, as gardeners, can assist in this crucial repopulation. Do your part by growing the flowers mentioned in this enhanced ebook to attract, feed, and nurture the health of these three amazing types of pollinators.

Autorenporträt

G. Edwin Varner grew up on a farm, helping his father in the crop fields and assisting his mother in the flower and vegetable gardens. This experience and learning led him to receive a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Botany.

He successfully owned and operated a fragrant flower mail-order nursery for twenty years. Unlike most mail-order nurseries publishing colorful but expensive pictorial catalogs, his frugal catalog extensively described the flowers he grew. He once said, "I write a thousand words worth a picture in my catalogs." Today, he has the same style of writing (thankfully with fewer words) through a variety of enjoyable and informative ebooks. This time, the ebooks include color photos of each flower.

He encourages you to cultivate something unique and beautiful in your gardens. His motto is "Read about it, see it, grow it and enjoy it!"

G. Edwin Varner owns Green Thumb Publications and lives in a rural area of northeastern Ohio, USA.
