In the Pink<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s always fun to add a new plant to the garden, especially when it\u2019s a vigorous, undemanding one with pretty flowers.<\/p>\n

But beds, borders, and containers overflowing with pink flowers do more than just brighten up the landscape.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re an open invitation to a variety of pollinators<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and hungry backyard birds<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

When choosing your flowers, consider dwarf varieties when you want a compact growth habit suitable for small spaces<\/strong><\/a> and container gardening.<\/p>\n

Large native species are your best bet where there\u2019s room for naturalization, such as along a property perimeter, or in a meadow.<\/p>\n
