A Simple, Effective Way to Support Pollinators

Gardens that attract pollinators such as  butterflies, hummingbirds, and even bees, are fast becoming a key trend in landscape design. And for good reason: native pollinators play an essential role in the ecosystem, helping plants reproduce and even helping ensure food security. The GO n GROW garden kit makes it incredibly easy to create your own pollinator haven at home!

Priced at just $85—or $3.50 per plant—each kit comes with 24 starter plants, selected specifically for their impeccable resilience in Texas’s challenging climate. The kit is designed to cover an area of up to 125 square feet and includes 10 different plant varieties to provide continuous blooms from spring through fall. Think of it as nature’s invitation for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds to visit your yard, while simultaneously reducing the need for excess watering, or pesticides and synthetic fertilizers.

 

Thoughtful Design Meets Affordability

The practicality of the GO n GROW kit lies in its thoughtful design. Whether you’re a novice gardener or someone who’s dealt with tricky landscape patches before, this kit simplifies the process. Each GO n GROW box contains three professional plant-by-number layouts, offering flexibility with options like a 5′ x 25′ rectangle, a 16′ x 16′ triangle, or a 13′ circular design.

The plant selection is not only geared toward pollinators but is also carefully curated to ensure year-round appeal. The mixture of long-blooming plants and semi-evergreen varieties ensures that your garden remains a vibrant focal point, even during Texas’s colder seasons.

Moreover, GO n GROW gardens are designed with water conservation in mind—an issue that’s particularly pressing in North Texas, where drought conditions and high summer water bills often challenge home gardeners. By opting for native plants, you can  reduce your water usage AND help conserve local ecosystems.

 

Convenience at Your Fingertips

The GO n GROW kits are available for Pre-Order NOW through September 20 (or while supplies last) and can be conveniently picked up on Saturday, September 28th at a pickup location of your choosing. The pick-up process is also designed to be as seamless as the garden itself! You can choose from one of eight pick-up locations spread across Texas, including Allen, Arlington, College Station, Fort Worth, Garland, Southlake, Mansfield and Pilot Point (Denton County). On the designated day, simply drive up to your chosen location, collect your garden kit, and you’re ready to start planting.

With busy schedules and limited time for extensive gardening projects, the GO n GROW concept offers an appealing, practical solution that takes much of the guesswork out of plant selection and garden layout. The boxed gardens—sized just 2 ft. x 1 ft. for easy transport—contain everything you need to bring a touch of nature back to your yard. Whether you have a sprawling garden or a modest backyard, the flexibility in the matrix designs ensure that you’ll find the right fit for your space!

 

 

 

 

Why Native Plants Matter

One of the key selling points of GO n GROW is its emphasis on native Texas plants. Native species are best adapted to the region’s weather and soil conditions, meaning they require less maintenance and fewer resources to thrive. This makes them perfect candidates for supporting Texas’s local pollinator populations that evolved in the same conditions. More importantly, these plants contribute to the broader environmental movement of fostering biodiversity in urban and suburban areas!

Among the selection of the 24 plants included in the GO n GROW Pollinator Garden kit are favorites like Gregg’s Mistflower, Lanceleaf Coreopsis, and Wild Bergamot,—plants that not only bloom beautifully but also provide essential nectar for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The inclusion of Green Milkweed, for example, is especially notable, as it offers vital support to the monarch butterfly population, which has been in decline in recent years.

 

A Garden for the Environment, a Garden for You

GO n GROW is more than just a garden kit—it’s an opportunity to contribute to a larger movement of environmentally conscious gardening. By planting a garden that supports pollinators, you’re helping ensure that crucial species have access to the resources they need to survive, all while transforming your yard into a visually stunning space.

Whether you’re driven by the desire to help the environment or simply want a beautiful, low-maintenance garden, GO n GROW offers the perfect solution. At $85, it’s an affordable way to enhance your outdoor space, and the environmental benefits are an added bonus. With pre-orders open now and kits available for pick-up on September 28th, this is your chance to get growing—and to do something good for the planet at the same time!
