Harlequin's Gardens Class: Pollinators & the Plants They Love with Andrea Montoya
What: Colorado is home to at least 1000 native bees, scores of beetles, butterflies, dragon flies and more. But their numbers are declining, in large part because they have little or no access to the plants they love and need to survive. Learn what those plants are with insight into how and when to plant them so that the pollinating insects of Colorado have a chance to once again thrive. We will cover specific pollinating insects and flowering plants for both.
Details: Cost is $23.
When: Sunday, April 7, 2024; 9:30 - 11a.m..
Where: Harlequin’s Gardens, 4795 North 26th St Boulder, CO 80301
