This informative and entertaining eBook describes some of the best seasonal garden flowers that provide abundant nectar and pollen to attract pollinating bees.

The question of why you should attract bees is logical since your primary consideration is to grow beautiful flowers. Our common honey bee, bumblebee, and solitary bee populations are rapidly declining worldwide. There are plenty of speculations about the causes of this decrease but with few solutions.

These insects are vital for essential pollination services for our garden flowers, fruit, and vegetable crops. Will our flower gardens help ease this decline? In a small way, yes — but a united effort of many small gardens acting together each year will make a promising difference in the survival of all bees. They are worth the effort, even if they sting!

This eBook identifies and describes several beautiful bee-friendly flowers for continuous spring-to-fall blooming, ensuring a constant visitation of several pollinating bees to your flower and vegetable gardens.

Please learn not to think, "Why should I care about bees?" Instead, ask, "How can I help them?" This publication will explain why you must care, suggest which plants to grow, and perform essential practices to help your neighborhood bees thrive and survive.
