The honeybee is dying out; and this is even worse news than you might think. Not only will we have to give up our delicious honey, prosperous meadows will also disappear. Bees are responsible for pollinating 80% of the floral population, as well as 30% of all feed crops.
It’s not a difficult thing to avoid the destruction of the entire ecosystem. 2014 will be another year where large-scale monocultures, insecticides and fine particles will disturb the bees. But YOU can do something to help. How? Just plant the following flowers and herbs in your garden, on your balcony, on the backyard or in overgrown, urban parks:
Lavender
Catnip
Sage
Coriander
Thyme
Fennel
Borage
Crocus
Buttercup
Asters
Hollyhock
Anemone
Snowdrop
Geranium
Sunflower
Marigold
Sweet Alison
Poppy
Zinnia
Pink Queen
Solstices
Not only will you beautify a wild meadow, but you will also save the bees. These are their preferred flowers.
