Happy Pollinator Week! 🐝🦋

A pollinator-friendly garden isn't just beautiful. It's helping support bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other beneficial insects that keep our ecosystems thriving.

From lavender and coneflowers to milkweed, catmint, and yarrow, these are just a few of the plants that keep our garden buzzing with activity all season long.

NEW FOR 2026: Coconut Cream Hardy Hibiscus

If you love the tropical look of hibiscus but need something that survives our winters, meet Coconut Cream: a brand new hardy hibiscus (rose mallow) making its garden center debut this year.

Its enormous creamy white blooms with a deep red eye can reach dinner-plate size and put on a show from mid-summer into early fall, just when many other perennials are winding down.

🌿 Mature Size: 4-5' tall x 4-5' wide
☀️ Sun: Full sun
💧 Water: Keep evenly watered, especially during the first year. Hardy hibiscus loves moisture and performs best in consistently moist, well-drained soil.
🌸 Bloom Time: July through September

For a stunning summer border, pair it with:
• Purple coneflower (Echinacea)
• Black-eyed Susans
• Russian Sage
• Switchgrass
• Little Bluestem
• Panicle Hydrangeas

The bright white blooms pop beautifully against darker foliage and ornamental grasses. Available in store & online. Shop it here: https://www.bastbrothers.com/products/hibiscus-coconut-cream-pw
