Garden with Jonny Pollinator Party Bundle (Dahlia Bishop of York, Dahlia Bishop of Auckland, Dahlia Fascination, Dahlia Bishop’s Children Mix, and Begonia Nonstop Yellow)

Garden with Jonny Pollinator Party Bundle

The Pollinator Party Bundle has been carefully selected by Jonny to bring colour, movement, and life into the garden while supporting bees and butterflies throughout the summer. This vibrant collection focuses on open-flowered dahlias, warm tones, and nectar-rich blooms that naturally attract pollinators.

Perfect for borders, containers, and wildlife-friendly planting schemes, this bundle combines striking dark foliage with bright, accessible flowers. The result is a lively, ever-changing display that not only looks beautiful but actively encourages garden visitors.

Dahlia Bishop of York produces single golden yellow flowers with warm orange centres, standing out clearly against dark bronze-green foliage. Its open flower form makes it especially attractive to bees and other pollinators.

Dahlia Bishop of Auckland adds rich colour with single deep red blooms and glowing orange-yellow centres, held above dark purple to near-black foliage. Together, the Bishop varieties create strong contrast and continuous pollinator interest.

Adding variety and texture is Dahlia Fascination, with semi-double purplish-pink flowers and a contrasting dark central disc, set above attractive bronze foliage. Its open structure makes it another favourite with beneficial insects.

Dahlia Bishop’s Children Mix introduces a lively mix of red, orange, and soft pink flowers, all set against striking dark foliage. This varied mix adds movement, colour variation, and extended flowering across the planting.

At ground level, Begonia Nonstop Yellow provides long-lasting colour with bright yellow flowers and lush foliage. While begonias are not a primary nectar source, they help fill gaps and keep the display full and vibrant throughout summer.

Together, these varieties create a joyful, colour-rich planting that buzzes with life from early summer through to autumn. The Pollinator Party Bundle is ideal for gardeners who want strong colour and an active, wildlife-friendly garden.
