Balls of tiny flowers sit atop the tall spikes of the perennial rattlesnake master, a drought-tolerant plant with pale green summer blooms. Though it looks like a thistle, this plant is a member of the carrot family—crush the leaves to catch the familiar scent.

Another member of the mint family that draws pollinators is mountain mint, a low-maintenance herbaceous perennial  with pink-speckled blooms that open in midsummer. "The crushed foliage has a minty aroma, different from the mint types grown as common herbs, but still minty overall," says Talabac. "It's popular with a lot of other pollinators, like native bees, solitary wasps, and honeybees, teeming with activity when a clump is in peak bloom."

Summersweet, a deciduous shrub, gives off a sweet scent from its off-white or light pink blooms in the later part of the summer, drawing pollinators after other plants have stopped flowering. "It's later to leaf-out in spring than most flowering shrubs, so don't be alarmed if branches are still bare when other garden plants start regrowing," says Talabac.

Anise Hyssop, a member of the mint family, produces tall cones of small purple flowers, and exudes a minty scent from its crushed leaves. The nectar draws butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. "This plant has a long bloom period—at least a couple months in summer, possibly longer if deadheaded," says Talabac.

While its cousin, common milkweed, is likely to spread through as much of your garden as it can, the "more restrained" butterfly weed will attract plenty of its namesake pollinators without the aggressive takeover. "Butterfly weed is vibrant orange or yellow-orange (or more rarely reddish-orange)," says Talabac. "They bloom around midsummer, and some species have appealing fragrances. Monarch and Queen butterflies will use many species of milkweed as host plants for their caterpillars."

Salvia is a member of the sage family (the herb you've probably consumed in a myriad of culinary dishes). As a plant, salvia has many small brightly colored flowers that bloom in the summer and fall. "Both butterflies and hummingbirds adore the nectar of these small flowers," MacLean says.

Butterflies flock to this North American flowering plant—specifically to their dark center, which contains about 200-300 small tubular-shaped flowers. For these critters, this acts as a shallow cup of nectar, MacLean says. "They prefer full sun, well-drained and fertile soil, and are best used as a backdrop to any pollinator garden, as they can get up to 3 feet tall."

This multi-colored flower, which is most often seen in shades of cream, red, and purple, attracts butterflies thanks to its bright color and alluring smell. However, Mavec warns that butterflies do not like double zinnias; this variety makes it too hard for them to get the nectar—it becomes too much work. "It is best not to crowd zinnias, as they develop powdery mildew," she adds.

Butterflies love the color and sweet nectar smell of this perennial flowering plant. "Lantana does best in well-draining, slightly acidic soil and can tolerate full sun," MacLean says. "It can be grown in borders, mixed beds, and containers."

Also known as the coneflower, this pinkish-purple bloom makes a beautiful addition to any garden. Both butterflies and bees love its sweet nectar and color, notes MacLean. "Be sure to leave some spent blooms on the plants in fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds," he adds.

Full list
She first appeared on screen in 1993 in the film Chandni Raatey but her breakthrough came with Tumi Amar (1994), in which she starred alongside Salman Shah. This helped her quickly becoming a sensation in the industry and led her acting in big role movies such as Jibon Shongi, Shopner Thikana, Moner Majhe Tumi, Ananda Ashru.
She won Bangladesh National Film Award for Best Actress for her role in the film Dui Noyoner Alo (2005).[3]
Background
edit
Kazi Sharmin Nahid Nupur was born on 17 December 1975[1] at Navaron, Jessore, Bangladesh. Her father is Shahjahan Chowdhury. She has a sister and a brother–Jhumur and Tamal.[2][4]
Career
edit
Shabnur debuted her career with co-actor Shabbir in the 1993 film Chandni Raatey, directed by Ehtesham. Her first hit movie was Hridoy Amar with Amin Khan. She got her breakthrough in her third film Tumi Amar, co-acted with Salman Shah in 1994.[5]
Shabnur co-acted with Salman until his death in 1996. She later acted with Omar Sunny, Riaz, Ferdous Ahmed, and Shakib Khan, among others.[6]
After a year-long break, two films, Bhalobasha Saint Martin-e and Attogopon, with Shabnur were released in 2012.[7] In 2013, she acted in Kichhu Asha Kicchu Bhalobasha.[2]
After a years-long acting hiatus, Shabnur is slated to appear in two films in pre-production in 2024, Rangana, a thriller film directed by Arafat Hossain, and Matal Hawa, a film to be directed by Chayanika Chowdhury.[8][9]
Personal life
edit
Shabnur got engaged with Anik Mahmud, a businessman, on 6 December 2011 and married on 28 December 2012.[10][11][12] The couple officially got divorced on 26 January 2020 due to compatibility issues.[13] Together they have a son.[4][14]
Shabnur established a school, Sydney International School, in Baridhara, Dhaka in 2011.[7] She resides in Sydney, Australia.[15] She is an Australian citizen since 2012.[2]
Involvement with Salman Shah's Murder
edit
Some members of Salman Shah’s family publicly claimed the death was murder, and at times mentioned several names, including Shabnur’s, as part of their suspicion.
However, these were personal beliefs, not legal findings. Because Shabnur and Salman Shah had a very popular on-screen partnership and many fans speculated about a possible personal closeness, her name began appearing in rumors.
Awards
edit
In 2004 Shabnur won the Bachsas Award for best actress in the film Bou Shashurir Juddho [bn].[16]
She won the Bangladesh National Film Award for Best Actress in 2006 for her role in the film Dui Noyoner Alo (2005),[3] and won Meril Prothom Alo Awards for best actress ten times.[7]
In 2011 she received the CJFB Performance Award for Best Actress in the 2010 film Ebhabei Bhalobasha Hoy.[17]
