Useful Plants for your Bee Garden
Three useful and easy to take care plants for your bee garden.
Raspberry
Easy to grow and full of antioxidants. Bees love it in the spring. They gather pollen and nectar and are all over the plant keeping it pollinated to give you the best possible harvest in the late summer and early autumn. The leaves can also be used to make tea.
Cherry Tree
Great early spring nectar and pollen source for bees. Just at the right time for the bees needs. You will not harvest honey from Cherry with couple of trees but I urge all beekeepers to provide at least one tree around the hives because bees love it and you will love it too along with your and neighbour's kids :)
Purple Coneflower
This flower is the Queen in my garden. I see myself planting it more and more. Bees love it and the whole family is making tea and tincture. It is believed to be one of the best immune system building herbs. So it is useful for you and for bees. After two years you can even use roots to make tincture but I just leave it there for my bees and only take some flowering head here and there.
