This wonderful warm weather is great for bees – up early this morning buzzing around in my garden.
The life of a bumble bee is quite appealing – diving into beautful scents, being dazzled by beautful flowers and rolling around in pollen – must put that on the after life list!
Bees, butterflies and biodiversity are the buzzwords of the 21st century gardener and with good reason. Gardeners are perfectly equipped to provide more than their fair share of pollen and nectar rich plants to feed our native pollinators.Encourage bees into your garden with special plants suggested by the RHS.

Debbie - who has written 872 posts on My Climate Change Garden.
I am not an experienced gardener - more of an enthusiastic amateur who learns by trial and error and who is keen to "manage" the effects of shifting weather patterns on my garden.
Writing this blog is my passion and it has evolved over 12 years to inspire engagement with climate change outside our back doors, in our personal gardens and green spaces.
My mission is to fertilise and expand this platform to grow a community of global gardeners communicating about the effects of climate change on our plants and exploring how each individual can make small changes in our lives to become more sustainable.
The future of our gardens and #OurPlanet is in our hands - please plant your own seeds for our collective sustainable future.
