According to nationaldaycalendar.com, "Always the first full week of May, National Wildflower Week commemorates the colorful blossoms that bring our landscapes to life. Whether they are on mountainsides, pastures, or in our own backyards, wildflowers create habitat, help conserve water and reduce erosion. It's the perfect time to begin planting a wildflower garden. Wildflowers offer many benefits and one of them is creating a habitat for pollinators. Pollinators such as the monarch butterfly and the honey bee have been in decline. While all the reasons have not been identified, increasing the available habitat does help! Encouraging the growth of natural habitats also attract pollinators."
