Planting this summer..for bees

[Susiejb]

I have been watching the BBC programme Bees, Butterflies and Blooms about planting for the pollinating insects....when thinking of planting our summer bedding plants hopefully we can all include some plants for the bees and insects....lots of suggestions on the net, apparently wild flowers are making a comeback and can look amazing.
