Controlling degradation requires understanding of many different phenomena, including chemical mechanisms, the influence of polymer morphology, the complexities of oxidation chemistry, and the effects of stabilisers, fillers and other additives.
How to Create a Pollinator Garden. Pollinators thrive on flower nectar and pollen. Designate a section of the landscape strictly for a pollinator garden filled with a multitude of grasses, trees, shrubs and wildflowers. Seek out a site that receives at least six hours of sun each day.
Pollination is the process of moving the pollen from the male components of a plant or flower to the female parts. This fertilizes the female reproductive cells so that a fruit or seeds will develop. Pollen is produced in flowers in the stamens and then must be transferred to the pistil, the female reproductive organ. Pollination may occur within the same flower, which is called self-pollination. Cross-pollination, from one flower to another, is better and produces stronger plants, but it is more difficult. Plants have to rely on wind and animals to transfer pollen from one to another. Animals like bees and hummingbirds that make this transfer, are called pollinators. Pollen in the Garden and Allergies
