Glossary of Terms: 

Annual plants are those that only grow for one long season and die with the onset of frost

Cut flower are long stem flowers cut from the plant and used decoratively in bouquets

Native plants are those that are indigenous to your area and have evolved to thrive with the ecosystem, insect and animal population and therefore are able to contribute in a meaningful way to that ecosystem, for example to the bird, butterfly, hummingbird and bee populations

Perennial plants are those that live in the soil over winters and return and regrow the following years

Pollinator attractor plants provide easily accessible pollen for bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinators and are therefore, more attractive and sought after by pollinators as a dependable food source that they will continue to come back to
