Different bees and pollinators benefit from specific types of flowers. Whether a flower is deep or shallow, red or yellow, generous with nectar or stingy... These all impact the attractiveness to different pollinators. We have collected some of the Best Flowers for Honey Bees on this poster that is free to download. Backyard beekeepers should consider growing some of these flowers to improve bee health and honey quality.
My forever beans. They really are the greatest. A bean gets forgotten? It won't get woody just huge. It gets reaaaaally lost? Now I have some for next year.
These beans have been both delicious and prolific. This is my second season growing them and I'll continue to reorder because they are fantastic. Tall but not unmanageable on my cheap bamboo trellis too.
