The Importance Of Wildflowers by Tilly
Wildflowers are not just pretty; they’re very important for nature
Whether they know it or not, all living creatures depend on flowers as part of the cycle of life
For example, they provide food to insects in the form of nectar, pollen, and leaves
The insects are then eaten by birds, mammals (such as bats), reptiles, and amphibians
That’s not all; wildflowers are a breeding ground for the insects to lay their eggs
In return, the insects pollinate the wildflowers and help spread their seeds
Creatures such as bees and butterflies would be extinct without wildflowers
Without bees people would have no food to eat as bees help our crops to grow
We should all help by planting wildflowers.
