Hi all,
 
Just an aside, I think that if you want to plant for bees (or a great
many other insects for that matter) trees win just about every time.
One good mature tree (aye there's the rub) will yield equivalent
to something like an acre of wildflowers. A small copse of suitable
trees is a (relative) goldmine.
 
Bye for now.
