why did my backyard explode with bees after planting wildflowers?
Last spring, I tossed a handful of wildflower seeds in a corner of my yard, just to see what would happen. A few weeks later, my garden was buzzing—literally. Bees, butterflies, and even a couple of hummingbirds started showing up every day. I never realized how much these little pollinators love a messy patch of flowers. I stopped using any sprays and let some dandelions stick around. Turns out, those "weeds" are like a buffet for bees. Now, every time I see a bee diving into a flower, I feel like I’m helping out in a small way. Plus, my tomatoes and strawberries have never looked better. If you want more pollinators, just let your garden get a little wild. It’s way more fun than a perfect lawn.
