bee attractor

A friend of mine gave me a couple of ABB plants and put them in my garden next to my Genovese basil and when they matured and flowered I noticed not only did they attract a large numbers of bees but also large variety too. When you get close to a large group of plants you can actually hear the bees buzzing, too cool.

I now plant 30-40 plants every year just to help attract and feed our local bee population.
