Have a #balcony or #garden? Promise to plant #bee-friendly crops, ban #insecticides and do not tidy up too much in autumn (to save living space for wild bees) using the hashtag #Bienenversprechen, asks #Demeter Germany: https://www.demeter.de/bienenversprechen
I do.
@Blort
Most herbs, fruit trees, corn flowers, phacelia, calendula, sun flowers,.... Many garden blogs have extended lists, e.g. http://beefriendly.ca/25-plants-for-bees-in-your-garden/
Thanks! You've inspired me. 😊 I think I'll plant some herbs and sunflowers.
@Blort
The important thing with herbs: Keep your parsley, basil, thyme, chives, dill weed, cilantro... until they finished flowering (and collect the seeds if you want)
@organictraveller
Any recommendations for bee friendly plants?
