How close should the pollinator garden be to the vegetable garden? Will seeding white clover in the grass area around the vegetable garden attract pollinators and improve pollination in the veggie garden? have read recommendation to intersperse flowering plants with the veggies to attract beneficial insects. Would it however have the opposite effect of drawing the pollinators to the more plentiful clover flowers in the lawn and away from the veggie garden?

    Do you have suggestions on plants that do flower over the winter? I am in Sydney, Australia.

      In a very different part of the world, but will have a look for you. Suspect you’ll have a lot of options.
