These are a couple of native species I grow in my yard instead of the grass that was there when we arrived. This is a hard carved, hand printed Lino print with collaged Japanese washi papers of a clump of black-eyed susans (Rudbeckia hirta) with a cone flower (Echinacea) & a monarch butterfly. These beautiful wildflowers are garden favourites popular with the pollinators. https://minouette.etsy.com/listing/1218738356

More of my pollinator garden work in progress about the future of pollination for Manufactured Ecosystems.

I’m thinking about a variety of futures possible for pollination and pollinators. Planting native plants wherever you are can foster these species on whom we and our ecosystems depend.
