Planting a cottage garden with pollinator plants is a delightful and environmentally friendly way to create a lush, vibrant landscape. These gardens are characterized by their informal, densely planted design, which often includes a variety of perennials, herbs, and flowering shrubs. By selecting native plants, gardeners can provide optimal habitats for local pollinators, such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, which are adapted to these indigenous species.
