This Bee Bath is my first creation in what I hope to be a popular range as not only did I enjoy making it, but I love the thought of it helping bee colonies all over the country!
Bee Baths are one of the easiest and most effective methods of drawing more nearby bees to your garden. Bees collect water for various work and health reasons, so adding this minor feature will transform your ordinary backyard into a pollinator haven When you add a bee bath to your garden, you provide a vital resource for local bees. Although honeybees don’t use water for hydration, they collect water to aid their digestion and keep their guts healthy. Bees also collect water in their wings to fan themselves inside their hot hives but they can drown if their wings get too heavy so you can see little landing spots throughout my Bee Bath.
Perhaps the most important reason to provide water for bees is to support bee larvae. Nurse bees need water to create royal jelly to feed bee larva and help them grow
My Flower Garden Bee Bath has been created on a sealed terracotta saucer, and measures approximately 26cm diameter x 4cm in height. Pretty ceramic and glass tiles, some with an iridescent sheen complete the design while layered pebble tiles and flower centre discs create landing spots for the bees. Little glass bees, ladybugs and toadstools complete the design with a faerie like touch.
As well as supporting your local bees I hope you will find that this Bee Bath is a beautiful piece of art for your garden.
