One of the best ways to help sustain our endangered bumble bee population is to plant a garden that serves as a haven for these beautiful creatures. To attract more bumble bees to your garden, try planting the following bee friendly foliage.
- Coneflower
- Goldenrod
- Columbine
- Milkweed
- Indigo
- Lupines
Each of these plants attracts bumble bees throughout the year and will help create habitats for them. Plus, they create a beautiful, colorful garden for you to enjoy all season!
