Create a Variety of Flower Shapes and Colors

To attract a wide range of pollinators, it’s important to plant flowers that come in different shapes and colors. Pollinators have different preferences when it comes to flower structure and color. For example, butterflies are attracted to bright red, orange, and yellow flowers with a flat or shallow shape, while hummingbirds are drawn to tubular-shaped flowers in shades of red or pink. By offering a variety of flower shapes and colors in your garden, you can increase its attractiveness to different pollinators.
