Buying plants treated with neoniconoids (commonly used pesticides) can cause colony collapse…killing bees or changing their behavior. Protect the honeybees…beware of neoniconoids when buying plants and seeds.
Help save the honeybees…it’s not complicated to make a difference.

So so sad. I hope I’m dead before the bees are. I couldn’t imagine life without them.

Yes, it is tragic and speaks to the totally lame producers of pesticides and their lack of caring for the delicate cycles of nature.

Is it noted on plants when you purchase them?

Sellers are suppose to label accordingly…Home Depot does. I just hope all others do…so to avoid this I buy only organic plants and seeds.

A great cause to raise awareness for – I only buy/grow organic too, and plants lots and lots of lavender.

Thanks for posting!
I have just read “The history of bees” – an award winning novel by Maja Lund and loved it. Now I look at bees with different eyes. 🙂
Happy Easter 🐣🐰🐣
