We LOVE wildflowers. Well, we love all flowers really. Wildflowers are very special, though.
According to the WWF: "on a single day in summer, one acre of wildflower meadow can contain 3 million flowers, producing 1 kg of nectar sugar. That’s enough to support nearly 96,000 honey bees per day. Over a third of the world’s food relies on insects to pollinate them. Without insects, we’d need to artificially pollinate most of our favourite fruit and veg, which would be really time-consuming and very costly".
Having a few wildflowers in your own garden can make such a difference to pollinating species.
