First planted then 8 weeks later… I’m pretty chuffed anyway. We may only have a ‘yarden’ but we’re doing what we can @GrowingRev

Happy #WorldBeeDay! 🌍🐝 Bumblebees are much-loved insects & essential pollinators, but their populations have crashed. Plant nectar-rich flowers, grow-your-own, don't mow, become a @BumblebeeTrust BeeWalker, volunteer or member to save #bumblebees! 🌷 bumblebeeconservation.org

#SayNoToTheMow🙅🏽‍♂️ #BeeTheChange & get your garden buzzing this summer by resting the lawnmower! Even just leaving a small patch will make a huge difference for bumblebees as a variety of wildflowers pop up🏵️ More quick, simple ideas at ow.ly/vADh50EMPLv 🎥 @CawdronTom

Weekend job complete. A vertical, living wall. It still needs to fill out but my partner and I are over the moon with it. Cannot wait to see it grow. @BBCMorningLive @GWandShows @PlatinumMagUK @qvcuk @GardenNewsmag @GWmag #verticalwall #livingwall @Biotecture_ @plantbox

These are the PlantBox units I bought from @growingrev last spring. Planting and seeing these saved me during the first lockdown. Cannot wait to this spring to replanting and buying some more units. #PlantBox #VerticalGardens #Flowers #mentalhealth #Wellbeing #SaveThePlanet

The robin nesting in our PlantBox garden (in the strawberries!) does an amazing hummingbird hover when he brings food back in for Mrs - and I got him doing it!! @GrowingRev #plantbox #greenwall #nostrawberriesforus

Happy #WorldBeeDay to all our supporters! 🌍🐝 Here's a colony of Tree #bumblebees who took over residence of a bird box last summer and transformed it into a cosy family home! Thank you to Sarah Parnell for sending us this lovely video.

#FridayFeeling. . . Full-body bumblebee polish! 🧼 Thank you Andrea Hook for this delightful video of a Buff-tailed #bumblebee queen thoroughly enjoying a little grooming & tail scratching! The bumblebee flew off once it had spent several minutes doing a very methodical groom.

Happy February! We made it! February's the month for snowdrops. Each year, many of England’s most beautiful gardens are covered by a blanket of the pure white, delicate drooping flowers. Find stunning snowdrop gardens to visit here: bit.ly/2AHqr6S #February #gardens
In warmer parts of the UK, Buff-tailed #bumblebee queens can be just as busy in #winter and some even raise their colonies at this time! Winter forage plants for bees include Mahonia, winter-flowering heathers & honeysuckles, & snowdrops! Read more: ow.ly/cwrk50kjmJ9
