(18-48" tall x 12-36" wide) Our Mini Pollinator Pit Stop Plant Collection features compact plant varieties that are ideally suited to small-space gardens and container gardens for easy gardening anywhere. For gardeners without space for a meadow or large pollinator garden, these three perennial beauties will enthrall you with their colorful blooms, and you can feel good knowing you’re helping keep pollinators healthy. Butterfly Weed (Asclepias) is a native plant that feeds a wide range of pollinators with blooms from early to late summer and is a host plant for Monarch caterpillar larvae. Like most Salvias, 'May Night' Salvia will be a-buzz with activity as soon as the long-lasting flowers bloom, from early to late summer. Wild Bergamot (also known as Bee Balm or Monarda fistulosa) features signature tufted flowers in a lovely lilac-pink hue, blooming from mid-summer to late fall. These three plants are long-lived and deer resistant for worry-free gardening.
Collection is roughly 5' x 3' if planted together and contains 3 plants:
Butterfly Weed - 1 plant
'May Night' Salvia - 1 plant
Wild Bergamot (Bee Balm) - 1 plant
