Botany One on Nostr: but also about the variety of flower types, shapes, colours, and blooming periods ...
but also about the variety of flower types, shapes, colours, and blooming periods available to pollinators. This was the most important factor for predicting pollinator communities. It seems more varieties of plants are better than big displays.
It’s not just the presence of flowers that matters. Vegetation height reflected the opportunities for microclimates to develop, and for a variety of nesting sites for different life stages of pollinators.
