Biodiversity is the buzz word

Biodiversity is the buzz word at the Royal Horticultural Society Chelsea Flower Show 2010.  The plants and garden designs are stunning, as always, but one can hear the gentle sounds of bees, or at least bees that should be there.  Chelsea underscores that need for biodiversity to sustain our pollinators, those beneficial insects that feast on the smorgasbord of show gardens.  To view the garden designs incorporating pollen and nectar go to the following websites: L’Occitane Garden, HESCO Garden 2010,  Bradstone Biodiversity Garden, Courtyard Gardens,   Global Stone Bee Friendly Plants Garden, SAC Strutt & Parker Sustainable Highland Garden.
