Planting flowering shrubs helps bees survive because they provide a crucial food source (nectar and pollen) and habitats, supporting bee populations and the ecosystem they are a part of.
Bees rely on nectar and pollen from flowers for sustenance, with nectar providing energy and pollen serving as a protein source for development.
My students are concerned about bee colonies and survival. They want to help them by planting flowering bushes that will also help the community. The bees will help plants reproduce by transferring pollen between flowers, a process essential for plant survival and biodiversity.
