Getting gardens buzzing


It is Chelsea week and we were glued to the telly each night on the look out for ideas and new plants for our garden.

This year the RHS launched a new program to attract more bees and insects into our gardens, called Good for Pollinators, and garden centres up and down the country will have this label on plants that do the job. Really pleased to hear this because our garden attracts loads of bees and insects and we have consciously planted varieties that are good for wildlife, also focusing on colours that insects and bees recognise, such as blues, purples and yellows. Look forward to the arrival of the Red Admirals when the buddleia is in bloom.
