Pure nectar


Nectar bearing flowers attract lots of pollinating insects, the most important of them being bees of varying kinds. We have poppies in amongst the raspberries which are real bee magnets. This flower actually had three in it when the picture was taken.
More bees equal more pollination on your plot, so make it attractive for them and sow some flower seed or plant some plants to draw them in.
