Salvia mellifera, black sage, is a perennial shrub in the mint/sage family native from central California down through the top of Baja California. It is part of the cast of plants present in coastal sage and chaparral habitat, thriving only in a specific range of rainfall in a mediterranean climate. The flowers host a variety of pollinators including butterflies, hummingbirds, and native bees and its seeds, like other Salvia species, are abundant and provide food for animals and birds. The fragrant leaves contain chemicals used by the Chumash to treat pain and a unique spicy honey is derived from the plant in the modern day.

Please read more on the National Wildlife Federation website if you are considering applying. I probably missed some things here but this is so fucking cool.

Mount Annan botanical gardens.

Red Columbine (Aquilegia canadensis) in Pinery Provincial Park, May 2017. These beautiful flowers are a source of nectar for Ruby-throated Hummingbirds. They bloom around the time the Hummingbirds return from their wintering grounds and the long beaks of the Hummingbirds can easily reach within the nodding flowers. Bumblebees and Hawkmoths are other important pollinators. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #redcolumbine #aquilegia #aquilegiacanadensis #wildflower #wildflowerphotography #flowerstagram #pineryprovincialpark #ontarioprovincialparks #ontariowild #ontarionatureshots #beautifulnature #beautifulwildflowers #nativeplants #nativeflowers #plantphotography #pollination #ontariopark (at Pinery Provincial Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/COfiSWEgCDz/?igshid=1isfxo5rlbivx
