Paper wasps are not just evil little stingers, they actually do have a role as pollinators of flowers.
A healthy pollinator population is important for food and seed production. The Vancouver Park Board worked with UBC students through CityStudio Vancouver to create three prototypes for housing some of these tiny yet critical Vancouver residents. UBC School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture students produced these designs and are testing them here. The Fifth and Pine Pop-up Park provides a unique testing ground that benefits pollinators and people. Have a look around you. What kind of pollinator creatures do you see?

Lots of activity in the many allium blooms in the park rose garden. Happy to see all these pollinators enjoying them.

A pollinator is the biotic agent (vector) that moves pollen from the male anthers of a flower to the female stigma of a flower to accomplish fertilization or syngamy of the female gamete in the ovule of the flower by the male gamete from the pollen grain.
A close up picture of a red flower that the wife had bought for her. No idea what it is but the colour is stunning.
