Let’s Plan! Wildflower & Native Plants Planner & Activity Book

This hands-on planner leads students step-by-step through the entire process:

• Sun-mapping their yard to understand light patterns
• Observing and evaluating soil conditions
• Designing a garden layout using a grid planner
• Choosing native plants based on bloom time, height, color, and pollinator needs
• Creating seasonal planting plans for North, Central, and South Florida
• Learning proper planting techniques and simple garden care
• Supporting native bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, moths, beetles, and even bats

Students move beyond reading about gardening — they actively:

• Sketch their space
• Sequence the planting process
• Plan plant pairings for year-round blooms
• Track pollinator visits in observation journals
• Complete life cycle activities for bees and butterflies
• Practice pollinator safety and stewardship

This planner teaches real-world skills in observation, sequencing, mapping, research, ecology, and responsibility — all while helping students create a living outdoor habitat. By the end, students won’t just understand native plants and pollinators — they’ll have a thoughtfully designed garden plan (and the confidence) to grow one.
