As you likely know, bees are disappearing. One of the ways you can help them are by planting certain types of plants. I personally like bees, I don't mind them at all. Its really wasps that I hate. I saw this graphic going around and thought I'd share with you guys if you're interested in helping the bees. It shows which plants benefit them. I personally have two Lavender plants by my pond and they smell fantastic. I noticed quite a few bees by them last year.
Keep in mind that Monarch Butterflies are also disappearing, so you might want to plant flowers that benefit them as well. Unfortunately I don't have a list, but types of milkweed are a big help.
