Easter Bees to make and bake and buy

Some ideas for all you bee lovers that incorporate bees and Easter - especially if you ascribe to the view that Easter is about new life and spring I think bees should be in there with the bunnies, eggs and chicks, don't you?

Isn't this a beautiful decorated egg from Idora Designs where she explains how she painted it.

What flowers can I plant to attract bees?

Here is a list of plants that attract bees to your garden.

Here are some photos of plants that attract bees.

Why is this a good thing to do? 

Growing some bee friendly plants in your garden, like herbs or native plants, helps the environment.

• Bees need pollen & nectar in order to feed their colony in their hive.  
• Bees pollinate the flowers which produce fruit and seeds.
• Pollination helps us as well as birds and wildlife because it provides food.
