The Importance of Pollinator Plants

This garden does more than provide fresh cut flowers…it does good. Pollinator plants are vital for maintaining biodiversity, improving crop production and sustaining ecosystems.

Bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other native pollinators depend on flowering plants for nectar and pollen. By planting this collection, you are creating a vital food source and a beautiful habitat for your local pollinators!

We are so happy that you’ve chosen to grow the 1818 Farms Patriot Garden Plant Collection! I can’t wait to see how your garden flourishes and to hear about all the beautiful visitors like buzzing bees, fluttering butterflies and curious hummingbirds that stop by to visit.

Watching which pollinators are drawn to each bloom is one of the most rewarding parts of gardening. Be sure to share your garden updates with us!

FAQs

What size will my plants be at pickup? Plant size will vary depending on variety. All plants have been started as early as possible to ensure the most mature plant possible. These are the same size plants we plant in our garden. All plants have been hardened off and should be planted as soon as possible in their permanent growing space.

What are the light requirements for my plants? All plants included in this collection require full sun. For the best growing results, a minimum of 8 hours of sunlight is recommended.

Should I water my plants after pick-up? Once you arrive home with your 1818 Farms Patriot Garden Plant Collection water all plants.

When and where should I plant my 1818 Farms Patriot Garden Plant Collection? All plants are ready to be planted directly in the ground at pickup. It is recommended that you plant within 5 days of pickup. Water immediately after planting. Check the moisture level daily until plants are established. You can plant directly into a prepared flower bed or a raised bed that contains the appropriate soil mixture. We are planting this exact collection in a 4 foot by 8 foot raised bed garden.

When will my plants bloom? Bloom time will vary by plant species. You can expect the earliest blooms in 5-7 weeks.

Will my plants come back the following growing season? Most of the plants in the collection are tender annuals. This means they will not live after a frost. We have included a few varieties that with appropriate care will return year after year. These varieties are called perennials. Please note that extreme winter weather conditions and lack of watering during the growing season can result in perennials not returning.

What if my plants don’t grow or die? 1818 Farms goal is to provide the best quality starts/plugs for your home garden. Your Patriot Garden Plant Collection will be inspected on the day of pickup and only first quality plants will be included in your purchase. 1818 Farms is not responsible for plants once they are picked up from our farm.
