A new effort to get Calgarians to be more sustainable when they’re out working in their gardens focuses on watering less and helping the pollinators do more.
It’s aimed at encouraging people to put in more native plants, which don’t need much watering and also help to attract the all-important pollinators into a yard. The society is also encouraging gardeners to put a ‘bug hotel’ in their yard — a small habitat custom-made to attract insects.“By planting flowers and greenery we’re giving a place for pollinators to come,” Smythe explained.“The ladybugs lay their eggs in these,” she said, pointing to the larch cones she’s collected to add to the bug hotel in her yard.
