We love them not just for their contribution to the Halloween aesthetic, but also for their roles as pollinators & mosquito predators.

Hey did you know that Mosquitoes are pollinators? That means that their existence is justified, and that drives me insane.

Decided to go with ⁦⁩ ‘s name suggestion, and her name is Culex

I keep hoping hoping monarchs will appear someday to visit my pollinator garden and milkweed.

Attracting butterflies to our gardens has been a long standing aim for gardeners. As well as looking beautiful, they're important pollinators.

These two pieces of art from the Lindley Library show that even in the 19th century we wanted butterflies in our gardens!

But wasp as pollinators are as important as bees too! As some plants evolved specially to be pollinated by certain species of wasps. The most well known example is the fig tree! These trees needs a special kind of wasp to help with their pollination!

Another painting I did around then, based around pollinators, and a few others from around the same time.

Penstemons are one of the most valuable late summer-flowering perennials and, in all but the coldest regions, are easy and reliable.

Available in a variety of colours, they are great for pollinators!

If insects are the beating heart of our survival, flies are the aortic valve. They are nature's waste management, food source and pollinators. They are also so diverse and beautiful.
