☀️🌿 Sunny garden? These plants can take the heat. 🌞🌱

If your garden gets long stretches of direct sunlight, choose blooms that love bright, warm spaces. 🌸

Salvia, bougainvillea, sunflowers, lavender, and zinnias are all beautiful options for adding colour, texture, and pollinator-friendly life to your outdoor space. 🦋

Save this for your next garden planning day. 🐝

Save this for your next garden centre trip! 🦋🌸

Want more butterflies in your garden? Start with the flowers they can’t resist. Butterfly bush, coneflower, milkweed, lantana, salvia, cosmos, and verbena are all beautiful picks that help turn your garden into a little pollinator paradise.

Plant a few, skip the pesticides when you can, and let the butterflies find their way in. 🌿
