Native Plant Resources
Native plants form the bedrock of effective pollinator conservation because they provide the specific pollen and nectar resources that our native pollinators need for survival. Native plants are well-adapted to our local environment and often require less water and maintenance, making them a sustainable choice that supports both pollinator health and overall resilience for your garden. Before beginning a pollinator project at home, find out which plant species are right for our region. Here is a list of local resources for the Missoula area and western Montana.

Best Species for Pollinators – Center for Native Plants
