National Pollinator Week is June 22–28, and it’s a great reminder that a beautiful garden can also be a helpful one. Pollinator-friendly plants support bees and butterflies, improve flower performance, and help your vegetable garden produce better, too. The easiest way to start is to plant a mix of blooms that cover spring through fall and include a few nectar-rich favorites. Stop in this week and browse our pollinator plant selection—let’s build a garden that’s buzzing with life and gives back all season long.

What pollinators do you see most in your yard—honeybees, bumblebees, butterflies, hummingbirds, or all of the above?

June is a month of garden transitions—and some of the best blooms are just getting started. 🌹

Roses are reaching their peak, foxglove is adding dramatic height, hardy geranium is spreading color through the landscape, and coral bells and dianthus are bringing beauty to every corner of the garden.

If your garden seems to lose steam after spring bulbs and peonies fade, these mid-season performers help bridge the gap and keep the color coming.

And with Pollinator Week coming up June 22–28, now is a great time to start noticing which plants are attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds to your landscape.

See all of June's blooming stars:

If you’ve ever stood in the greenhouse thinking, “I love all of these plants… but what actually goes together?” this one’s for you. 🌿☀️

This Gardening TLC video walks through a full-sun urn combo step-by-step—so you can see the layers, the spacing, and the “why” behind the choices. It’s the kind of recipe-style planting that makes it way easier to build a container that looks finished on day one and keeps getting better as it fills in.

Watch here: https://youtu.be/q8liWrsRxIU?si=VUfz1nSNv6bybA40

What’s harder for you—picking the colors, or picking the plants that will actually thrive in your sun and heat?
