And Finally

I hope that by the time you read this you will be a little more confident about what sort of plants to put in your garden to attract and sustain bees, and how to arrange them in such a way that you find the end result attractive to look at – and that you will be inspired enough to put it into practice!

But now I will finish where I began, with my paraphrase of William Morris’s quotation, and an appeal that you will:

Have no plant in your garden that you do not know
to be useful to bees or believe to be beautiful.
