Carlos Murray has been adding pollinator plants to the raised garden beds along Frank Street between Bank and O’Connor in downtown Ottawa. This season he received donations from Nora Lee (Clyde Bee & Butterfly Patch) and the Fletcher Wildlife Garden.
Carlos’s style is to include a variety of grasses – and a few common “weeds” – to create natural structure and support for the native wildflowers.
