7 Great Pollinator Plants and 1 That Has To Go

🌸 My Top 7 Pollinator Plants & The One That Didn’t Make the Cut! 🐝

In today’s video, I’m sharing my top seven pollinator plants that have turned my garden into a buzzing, fluttering haven for bees, butterflies, and more! These plants are true all-stars when it comes to bringing in the pollinators.

Here are my top picks based on this season in my Zone 6A SE Michigan garden:

Calamintha nepeta – This little plant is an absolute pollinator magnet!
Millenium Allium – Beautiful blooms and a favorite among bees.
Verbena bonariensis – Tall, graceful, and always swarming with butterflies.
Monarda fistulosa (Wild Bergamot) – A native the bees love
Polygonum orientale ‘Cerise Pearls’ – Attracts all kinds of visitors.
Sweet Joe Pye Weed – Tall, majestic, and beloved by all the pollinators.
Gomphrena 'QIS Pink' -- Beautiful dried flowers that attract moths and bees in my garden.

But not every plant makes the grade! Unfortunately, coreopsis just didn’t perform well in my garden when it came to attracting pollinators. I’m sharing why this popular plant is getting the boot from my garden next season.

🌼 Let me know in the comments which pollinator plants are your favorites or if you’ve had a similar experience with coreopsis. Happy gardening! 🌷
