Bee
numbers have been declining at an alarming rate in recent years and it’s more important than ever for us to make sure our gardens are bee friendly.
Bees, wasps and hoverflies are just few of the broader names, of the many similar insects which inhabit our outdoor spaces. They’re all important pollinators and all have differen
t characteristics, needs and conditions we can help with when it comes to gardening.
Butterflies
and moths can be some of the most beautiful visitors to our gardens.
Growing a variety of different flowers and caterpillar friendly plants, can help attract these amazing insects.
They’re important pollinators and a joy to share our outdoor spaces with. If we can give them a good source of food,
shade and shelter, we can enjoy their company and may even be lucky enough to see their life-cycle unfold in front of us if they decide to stay and breed.
Ripe fruit, such as mashed banana can also be a sweet incentive for these fluttering beauties to come down and give you a closer look.
All of these bees, wasps and flies are fantastic pollinators and will benefit from clever bee-friendly planting. If we can give them a diverse range of flowering plants, throughout the season, we can cater for their varying flight periods and provide food for them all.
Making sure our gardens are stocked up with pollen covered, nectar-rich flowers is one of the best things we can do to help. Single petal flowers are often best, as they often provide more nectar. A range of colours and shapes are also important, to make sure every type of bee is attracted and can access the delicious nectar inside. It also goes without saying, that avoiding the use of pesticides is very important.
For solitary bees, home-made bug hotels and wildlife stacks will provide a great place for them to live, lay their eggs and hibernate. Leaving natural homes for them, such as piles of dead wood and cut branches and plants, can also be very helpful.
FLOURISH YOUR GARDEN:
Some insects are really useful that, when they living in the insect house in your garden, they help to recycle vegetation, pollinate plants, and in some cases even prey on some harmful insects, making your garden vivid and flourishing.
WONDERFUL GIFTS:
