A great overview + plant lists to support bugs and birds
A great overview of the subject for people wanting to support the ecosystem in their own spot of yard. I especially have appreciated the lists of larval host plants, since I'm wanting to provide food for birds (particularly bugs) in addition to nectar and pollen for bugs. Some good info on "pest" management without pesticides.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
