E32: Native Pollinator Trees, Shrubs, and Flowers for Virginia and Appalachia

Supporting native pollinators can be so much more than planting monarda and milkweed! It can be more than trying to create a wildflower meadow. It can be targeted at your own favorite species or cast a very wide net. This is a collection of high quality trees, shrubs, and flowers for supporting native pollinators in Virginia and Appalachia, for creating a unique garden, or just beautifying the roadside along your property (because most of them won't need any watering or care).
