Creating a Meadow Garden

Season 10 Episode 1011

For most people, the term meadow conjures visions of sweeping fields of grasses and multi-colored blooms. This episode explores how gardeners can enjoy the diversity, beauty and low maintenance benefits of this pollination haven even from small spaces or balcony gardens. Installing mini-meadows in part of your lawn or problem-growing area can attract more pollinators and beneficial insects.
