As spring approaches, London gets the odd day of sunshine which transforms the city and lightens the step. These warm days have woken the drowsy Bumblebee, a solitary helicopter. It is hard NOT to notice a Bumblebee as it zooms from one rosemary flower to the next – and it set me to thinking; ‘this bee is up too early from his winter sleep, and needs all the pollen he can get’. Having early flowering plants like heather and rosemary in your windowbox will give these early risers a much needed breakfast.
