Collection: Best Plants for Butterflies & Bees
Which plants are great for pollinators? That’s easy: the plants with flowers…Now, there is the tiniest chance that growers have unwittingly developed flowers that look great to humans but aren’t remotely attractive to bumble bees… but if they have, they aren’t telling us. So, if you want to do your bit for the bees... plant lots of flowers! Oh, and don’t use chemicals that kill insects.

Plants arrived in great condition and very promptly. Well established - much better than the ones I got at my local garden centre.

I continue to be so impressed with Roots. Their customer care, knowledge of their subject: from planting hedges to pruning roses and more, has been a great support.
