Here's a quick reminder about pollination."They visit the flower they want to drink the nectar inside the flower," says Jonathan Larson with the Nebraska Extension office. "It coats them in sticky pollen. They move those pollen granules from one plant to the next. The plant has successfully reproduced."Larson says without the pollinators, we would not be able to enjoy things like watermelon, apples, and other fruits. Hope Garden in West Omaha is doing its part with a pollinator garden. Larson says we need more of these."Pollinators have had troubles last few years," says Larson. "Less food for them as we urbanize areas. Also insecticides that can harm them and parasites and disease that affect colonies and their bodies."We are all encouraged to create our own pollinator habitat. It adds great color to your yard and helps attract honeybees, butterflies and other insects that are beneficial to the pollination process. Here is how you can attract them to your yard."Bees like blue, white and yellow flowers in a bowl shape," says Larson. "Butterflies like pink and purple with a landing pad to stand on. Moths like night opening white flowers and flies like them all, just about anything."There are 4,000 species of wild native pollinators in the United States. Some are better than others for certain crops. You can always reach out to the Nebraska Extension office with any questions you might have to help pollinators and make your yard pop with color.
