Grow a pollinator-friendly plant

Easy5 points

How to do this

  1. Choose something that handles UAE heat and attracts bees and butterflies — basil, mint, lavender, or native wildflowers.
  2. A pot on a balcony works fine — you don't need a garden.
  3. Use well-draining soil and water in the early morning or evening.
  4. Keep it where it gets sun but some afternoon shade in peak summer.
  5. Photograph your plant.
