Updating plant lists don't half take some time !!!

You may have read that I have been busy creating a bee friendly plant database.  More of a compilation of everyone else's lists and researching information to try and  melt it all in one successfully.

Anyway the 1st edition was launched last week and with all of these things as soon as you release it, it goes out of date.  More plants added.  I have not updated the main reports yet and I will do this over the next week or two.

I have released a new report called the "best of the best" plants.  This is the result of researching top plants for bees, those that give good nectar and pollen.  We can always add more, but the idea was to give a list of 20-30 plants that could enhance a garden tremendously.  With gardens getting smaller, these plants will maximise the bee friendly nature as well as give the gardener some delightful flowers.

If some appear to be weeds then don't worry, learn to love them for what they are, bee food!
