Once you get the native gardening “bug”, you can’t help but look around to see how your plants are working for local fauna. Our Master Gardeners shared their photos of the insects and other cold-blooded creatures in their gardens for the July 2026 issue of Cross Pollination. We got those, and then some!
“Unbeweevilble!” (in the July 2026 issue of Cross Pollination) had so many great photo submissions, we wanted to share them all. Enjoy!
