Orpine: A Resilient Pollinator-Friendly Perennial

 It is day 19 of Gardening for Wildlife Month! Orpine (Hylotelephium telephium), also known as live-forever, is a hardy perennial that plays a valuable role in wildlife-friendly gardening. Its clusters of star-shaped flowers bloom in late summer and early fall, providing an essential nectar source for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators when many other flowers have faded. Orpine's succulent leaves store water, making it drought-resistant and a reliable food source for insects. By incorporating orpine into your garden during Gardening for Wildlife Month, you can support pollinators while adding beauty and resilience to your landscape.
