Bee Garden

With bees on the decline, this couldn't be a better time to start a bee garden.
We need bees to pollinate our fruit and vegetable plants, so the blossoms will develop into whatever it is that we are growing. We also get a better harvest when we have plenty of bees visiting our gardens and fruit trees.

Without bees we wouldn't be able to grow food.

Here are a few plants to put into your garden, so that your assured a good yield of fruits and veggies. These plants will not only attract bees into your yard, they will add beauty and color as well.

1) White Boltonia
2) Catmint
3) Shasta Daisy
4) Siberian Iris
5) Sunflowers
6) Cosmos
7) Zinnias
8) Marigolds
9) Dahlias
10) Foxglove
After planting your bee garden, do not use any pesticides!
