Attracting bees to your garden

A purple flower that bees love. Lacy phacelia (Phacelia tanacetifolia), known in Dutch as 'bee food', makes lots of nectar for bees to make honey from. And bees use its pollen to feed their larvae. Butterflies and bumblebees also adore lacy phacelia. The climbing plant is also great in a nice flower pot. Sow the seeds from mid-April to mid-June in the open ground or in an attractive pot. The flowers bloom from July to October.
Space the nasturtium seeds 20 cm apart. Space the rows at a distance of 20 cm. Plant at a depth of 0.5 to 1 cm. The Phacelia blooms best in full sun. After sowing, water the seeds adequately. The flower seeds come in a bag containing approximately 0.5 grams. This is enough to sow 0.5 square metres.
