The garden bed to the right of the Honey Bee Haven entrance has been re-planted. As with any garden, some material had become overgrown and other plants were at the end of their productive flowering life. And remember at the Haven we're all about flowers!
The new planting emphasizes long-blooming bee favorites that will do well in full sun to light shade in much of California. With a few exceptions, this bed contains plants with a Medium or Low WUCOLS water-use rating.

Thanks to volunteers Cassie Bullock and Rick Williams who did much of the plant removal, planting, and mulching.
