Wow, I got 5017 points
We've really been working at increasing our bee-friendliness, and now that we've created two 'sunny beds' we can grow so many more plants that provide what the bees need.
I must say, we never have a problem with pollination on our beans

3967 , but it kept freezing saying
Can’t find what you’re looking for?
even when I was clicking on colours, or months.
I got 3,947 ?. We've already had a few big fat bumblies coming into the conservatory over the past fortnight. They seem to sit on the windowsill for a bit of a warm up and then buzz off again
Nice link Mark, thanks ??
Do I need to up my game before the Bees arrive next month?
4,984 but I have been going out of my way to plant bee-friendly plants for quite a few years now.
5874
I certainly do hosta! My only excuse is I'm gardening from scratch on a newbuild garden a year old. The site gave me lots of suggestions of plants to grow, my score was just above the average for my area?

Great raisingirl, I have wildflowers and my pears/apples/cherries are the wild version as well. I think they count as they get smothered in bees
