The location, soil and types of plant must be carefully selected. To ensure that a wildflower patch is actually a valuable habitat for wild bees and not just for show, it must also be correctly laid out, tended and protected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can all do our bit to help.

During this three-year project, the areas in question will be mowed no more than once or twice a year, allowing wildflowers to fully develop their blooms and provide plenty of pollen and nectar for busy little collectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong><strong>Every square foot helps! How can your garden help wild bees?<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your yards and gardens at home are perfect for a diverse range of wild flowering plants. If you leave your lawnmower in the shed a little longer, the flowers have a chance to seed. Alternatively, you can form small islands of flowers. A flat bowl of water, fitted with small rocks and sticks, offers wild bees a welcome place to stop and enjoy a sip of water on hot days \u2013 which is crucial for their survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Relevant topics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/2020\/11\/02\/botanical-sweetness-get-ready-for-revolutionary-sugar-replacement\/\">Botanical Sweetness <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A special edition of Me\u00dfmer teas called \u201cSave the Bees\u201d is helping create 50,000&nbsp;m\u00b2 of insect-friendly flowering meadowland in the German states of Thuringia and Bavaria.<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3237,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[183,24],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3225"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3225"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3225\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3253,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3225\/revisions\/3253"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3237"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
