There are a selection of garden plants and wildflowers that bees love, and which cater for both long and short-tongued species. If you have room for even one or two of these they’ll attract many insects and turn your garden into a bee haven. Most of these plants will also attract a range of other interesting insects to the garden, including butterflies and bumblebees.
