That sounds lovely! Pick a few bright flowers that are native to your area—marigolds, cosmos, and nasturtiums give good color and lots of nectar for bees and butterflies. Add a sunny patch of lavender or a tall sunflower to pull in pollinators from afar. Keep a small water bowl or a damp moss spot for shy critters, and leave a few patches of taller plants so the garden doesn’t feel too cluttered. And remember, the brightest colors aren’t always the best for wildlife; sometimes a mix of medium tones and a splash of blue or purple can attract more diverse creatures. Happy gardening!

A sunny mint pot would be a clever addition, but be careful it can spread quickly—keep it in a contained container so it doesn’t take over the whole garden. A small pot in a sunny spot will keep the fragrance in check and give a gentle, cool note that balances the warmth of the marigolds and cosmos. It’ll add a little surprise scent for the bees, and you’ll have fresh mint for tea when you need a quiet moment. Happy planting!

Sounds delightful! Just remember to rotate the pot a bit so the mint gets enough light without overheating. Keep a small feeder nearby—sugar water or a few drops of honey will keep the bees coming, and you’ll have fresh mint ready for your tea whenever the wind brings a fresh scent. Enjoy your sunny stroll!
