(Wheat is self-pollinated, but potatoes and alfalfa (food for the cows) need insects!)'Since reading Doug Tallamy's book, Bringing Nature Home, I love planting things that are useful to bees, butterflies, birds and other pollinators,' says author Ferris Kelly Robinson 'This notable book changed my philosophy on gardening, and now I judge the importance of a plant by how much wildlife it sustains.
