Pollinator Gardens, Pittsboro, NC

We have the right experience to help you create beautiful, inviting pollinator gardens.

For a variety of reasons, insect populations are in decline. While you may be happy to see certain insects go, such as cockroaches or mosquitoes, you can still acknowledge the important role insects play in the ecosystem. For example, the decline in pollinator populations is a serious concern for everyone, since they play such a key role in the ecosystem. Fortunately, there are things you can do to help preserve and increase the number of pollinators in your area. One of the best and most accessible examples for the average homeowner is that you can plant pollinator gardens. If you are interested in making your yard more appealing to pollinators, we encourage you to give our team at Garden Environments a call to find out how to get started.

Pollinator Gardens in Pittsboro, North Carolina

We use four key guidelines to design our pollinator gardens. First, we use native plant species—at least 70% of the plants in each of our projects are indigenous to the Southeast. This ensures local pollinators can get the nutrients they need. Second, we include a variety of plant species to attract a greater variety of pollinators. Third, we make sure the range of plants we use also includes a range of colors, because different pollinators see different spectra. Fourth, after we have installed your new pollinator garden, we’ll offer advice on how to maintain it without using pesticides.

FAQs About Pollinator Gardens

At Garden Environments, we love creating beautiful outdoor spaces that support the local ecosystem. One of our specialties is pollinator gardens, and we have answered a few questions about these gardens below.

Hidden

What is a pollinator garden?

A pollinator garden is designed to attract and support pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. We specialize in creating these gardens using native plants, ensuring sustainability and ecological balance.

Why should I consider a pollinator garden?

These gardens are vital for maintaining healthy ecosystems and enhancing biodiversity. If you want to make your outdoor living area supportive of local pollinators, we strongly recommend having us design one of these gardens for you.

How do you approach pollinator garden design?

We emphasize sustainability by incorporating at least 70% native plant species in our designs. This approach ensures our gardens are well-adapted to local conditions, require less maintenance, and provide optimal support for native pollinators.

What are the benefits of using native plants in my garden?

Native plants are adapted to the local climate and soil, making them more resilient and requiring less water and care. They also provide essential habitats and food sources for local wildlife, promoting a balanced ecosystem.

Do pollinator gardens require a lot of maintenance?

Not necessarily. By using native plants, which are adapted to local conditions, the garden will generally require less maintenance. We focus on creating low-maintenance landscapes that thrive naturally, reducing the need for constant upkeep.

Scott Kennedy

We have been incredibly impressed by Garden Environments! This was our first experience having any sort of extensive landscaping work completed, and we were honestly overwhelmed. We were initially drawn to them for their commitment to using native plants, as supporting the environment is very important to us. With somewhat vague ideas as to what we were looking for, they were able to come up with a beautiful, and functional, design. Every step of the process was carefully overseen and implemented, with great care taken for our property. They also re-used items from our yard, took care not to remove more plants or trees than were necessary, and even re-planted things where it made sense. It was such a relief to be able to hand over the decision-making and know that we were in good hands. Locke did an amazing job, and we are very impressed with the outcome. If we ever decide to have more work completed, we wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Garden Environments again!

Sara

Very pleased with the landscaping work by Garden Environments! We had a great designer that was considerate of our garden needs and communicated very well. The install team was very professional and helped make some last minute adjustments. Our yard looks wonderful - the end product exceeded my expectations! I would definitely recommend. Just be aware that landscape designers are in high demand, and it could be a long wait time between the initial consult and getting started with a landscape designer.

Jessica Millstein

I have a wet, shaded, steep back yard and they turned it into an absolute Zen oasis! I told them the few things that I didn't like, the few things that I loved and they put together the most incredible plan. And since I'm not good at gardening, I hate worms, I have them come on a monthly basis to keep my yard looking fabulous!

Greg Popken

The design team was very willing to adjust initial designs to better fit our vision. The installation team was top notch: efficient; took to the time to make sure it was done right; cleaned up when done and followed up.We also had Garden Environments do the maintenance after install. I can't speak highly enough of that. We had multiple previous companies that would do the minimum (rush in and rush out; need to be 'reminded' to complete certain tasks). Not so with Garden Environments. They take their time to see what needs to be addressed and they do it without having to be instructed. They tend to the landscape rather than just service it.

Rajitha Bearden

We had a very positive experience with Garden Environments - from our first meeting with Sheldon, working with Aurora on the design and Josh and his team on the work itself. Our front and back yards were a mess when we first moved in and we are so glad we made the investment. Admittedly, we experienced a bit of sticker shock (this is our first home, we've lived in apartments our entire adult lives, landscaping is completely foreign to us), but we are so glad we proceeded with the work. Aurora was open to modifying our plan and Josh helped us make some decisions regarding our backyard while he was here doing the planting in the front. We appreciated the flexibility and are still in touch with GE to do some more touches. Completely worth it! If they also offered indoor plants, we'd definitely go to them first! Highly recommend!!

Matt Aitken

Wendi and her Artistry in Plants team are amazing. They totally overhauled our front yard - removing unwanted/invasive plants and installing a diverse array of new plants to create much more balance and color than we had before. In addition to being great landscapers, these are great people. We liked them so much, we plan to use them again for our back yard this fall!

Joseph Simon

Highly recommend Garden Environments for landscaping work, particularly with a propensity for native plants - 5/5 stars. They did a fairy large hardscaping job for us that turned out much better than we envisioned. We get compliments on the work all the time. Very professional, Jennifer’s design work is incredible, and the crew was very communicative and timely throughout. Have and will continue to recommend to everyone and we’re having them come back to do another project.
