January might feel quiet in the garden, but it’s actually the perfect time to help the bees 🐝
Self-seeding flowers are hardy, low-maintenance, and come back year after year—and many can be planted right now. Scatter the seeds, let winter do its thing, and come spring you’ll have blooms the pollinators love.
Great self-seeding, bee-friendly flowers to plant in January:
• Calendula
• Bachelor’s Buttons
• Larkspur
• Poppies
• Sweet Alyssum
• Forget-Me-Nots
These flowers thrive with a little cold exposure and help support local pollinators when they need it most.
If you’re dreaming about spring but still buried in winter chores, Cory and the McGuire’s team have your back—whether it’s snow removal now or landscaping plans for later 🌸❄️
