Growing Butterfly & Bee Friendly Plants

Relatively hardy and easy to grow, these traditional favourites will make do with most well-drained soils and some watering in dry summer weather. A good amount of sun and shelter are necessary for best results.
Every plant comes with its own instructions.

History and Trivia

The more open-petalled the plants are, the easier it is for bees and butterflies to reach the pollen and nectar. Daisy-like flowers are a particular favourite, with the centre providing a delicious picnic table of delights.
