    Here is a list of plants to grow that will help attract and keep native ladybugs to your yard. You can order them but it's better to attract those that are native to your area. The link at the end is to a great website (in fact, this list is from the wensit).


    There are several pollen plants that ladybugs like. The blooms on these plants normally have flat flowers (like landing pads) and tend to be white or yellow. Flowers that attract ladybugs are:


    Angelica, Calendula, Caraway, Chives, Cilantro, Cosmos, Dill, Fennel, Feverfew, Marigold, Statice, Sweet Alyssum, Yarrow

    Ladybugs love aphids. rosebushes and vegetables have them. Buy a bag of ladybugs at your nursery and put on plants
