That does look lovely, the council next to ours plants up the roundabouts & spare ground with native wildflowers & they look stunning, I suppose it's less high maintenance than traditional bedding for them too.

As Sue suggests it wouldn't cost much to sow areas like that. I heard on the news that it's thought that bees thrive better in urban areas than in the countryside. This doesn't surprise me due to intensive farming. If I was a bee I'd be fed up with oil seed rape pollen. If they really want to help bees I recon they should get sowing meadows like that. better for us too. Enough of dreaming, we have to plant houses to accommodate immigrants legal and otherwise.

There are some fields about 10 miles from us where a 15 foot strip all round the outside of the fields had been planted with wild flowers, it looked stunning. Every time we drove by them I'd wished I'd remembered my camera, by the time I did the fields had been harvested. I'll try to remember next year
