Happy World Bee day 🐝🌼🐝

It’s ! So here’s some easy tips on how you (yes, you!) can help bees and other pollinators to thrive 🐝

🌻 Plant pollinator-friendly plants like lavender, geraniums and helenium

🏨 Build a bee hotel to help give solitary bees a place to rest their wings

✂️ Ditch trimming the grass and mow the lawn less

🪻 Let parts of your garden grow wild so that wildflowers can thrive

🧪 Skip the pesticides and avoid using chemicals in the garden

Tomorrow is WORLD BEE DAY, 20 MAY - what are you doing to help our bees?
It can be a simple thing like buying plants that are great for pollinators (see RHS Plants for Pollinators lists) or providing a shallow dish of water with mossy rocks in it so they can drink in hot weather, as seen here.

This is for you if you love pollinators 🐝

Wildlife film-maker Martin Dohrn is bee obsessed. He has found over 60 species in his Bristol garden and sets out to film them, with mind-blowing results.

Did you know that only 2% of British butterflies and moths spend the winter in their adult form?

The majority survive as eggs, caterpillars or chrysalises throughout the colder months. Some take shelter inside the stems or seedheads of dead plants, while others may be attached to the stems or rolled up in leaves. 🐛

One of the easiest things you can do to help them is to let your plants die off naturally in the autumn and leave them where they are until the following spring. 🥀

When you do finally cut them back, leave the stems and flowerheads in a quiet spot to give any overwintering creatures the best chance of survival.
