They say it's because of the high use of cell phones. Every summer I make sure to plant a lot of sunflowers and marigolds in my vegetable garden, so that they can attract the bees needed to help out my poor veggie plants. I find it does attract themm too, so I usually get a pretty good yield come harvest time.Gypsy Butterflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16867953800833095510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871537277602758528.post-7627534768825980352008-03-17T11:57:00.000-07:002008-03-17T11:57:00.000-07:00Holy drinking water!
