Seeing and hearing bees and other insects in our garden is one of the joys of spring and summer. Recently Peter and Penny have been delighted by solitary bees nesting in their bug homes. Here they share their experience of what did and didn't work to encourage bees and bugs to their garden, and offer some handy tips ahead of National Insect Week.
Penny and Peter were inspired to create a patch of wilder lawn about fifteen years ago when they first noticed the leaves of a common spotted orchid in the grass at the bottom of their garden. In this blog, they share their practical experience of turning that part of their lawn into a mini-meadow.
