The Bee Friendly Garden

Bees are our most important pollinators and they are in decline the world over. They love to live in urban environments, where it's a short flight path from one type of plant to the next. But conventional gardens that favour lawns and pesticides over flowers and edible plants are scaring the good bugs away.

Includes:

• How bees forage and why your garden needs them
• A comprehensive plant guide to bee friendly plants
• Simple changes anybody can make
• Ideas for gardens of all sizes
• Natural pest control and companion planting advice

Paperback. 205 pages. Colour photography. 25.5cm x 21cm.
