About the Project

Bring the Excitement of Pollinators to Your Visitors!

The intricate relationship between plants and the animals that pollinate them is fascinating and complex. Far from simple flowers attracting a butterfly or a bee, plant pollination is key to the very survival of the planet!

 

Spotlight On: POLLINATORS! is a temporary installation suitable for zoos, conservatories, butterfly exhibit enclosures, arboretums, or other education-based installations. Oversize graphic pollinator pairings are accompanied by supportive information which provide the building blocks of learning all about pollinators.

 

Honeybees and More

 Did you know that there are more than 4,000 native bee species in the United States? Or that these native species perform more pollination than our iconic friend the honey bee? Or that moths, beetles, and even flies have a part to play in the pollination game?

 

And when it comes to the plants and their blossoms, their evolutionary stories are complex and fascinating. Did you know that flower shapes have evolved specifically to be as successful as possible at depositing pollen grains on their pollinators? Their sugary nectar is only there to attract them. Those pollen grains are the real story.

 

Spotlight On: POLLINATORS! presents these complex topics in simple terms in a colorful, engaging way.
