The Pollinator Garden Guide

$12 — Digital Download (PDF)

A 40-page guide designed for Australian gardeners who want to support native species but aren’t sure where to start.

Featuring photographs from my own garden, showing the Australian native bees and plants that inspired this guide. With the right mix of plants and a few small habitat tweaks, any backyard garden, or even a balcony or front verge, can attract and support a variety of pollinators.

Inside you’ll find:

• The native bees, butterflies, flies, beetles and birds you’re most likely to see and how they use our gardens.
• The plant families and flower types that reliably support a mix of species
• The pressures pollinators face, and why our backyard gardens are more important than ever
• Why most commercial bee hotels don’t work, and how to make simple, safe alternatives
• How to plant a habitat garden with layers and seasonal continuity
• Trusted resources, websites and citizen-science projects if you want to explore further
