This relationship is long-standing and cannot be wholly replaced by a cultivar of a native plant, much less by an imported one.” The Alberta Native Bee Council website is an excellent source of information on keeping bees and pollinators happy and the types of plants to use. Factors such as flower shape, size, colour, and odour determine how and when the plant is visited by the bees. According to the Alberta Native Bee Council, “These native plants provide the bees with the right nutrients at the right time of year, and even at the right time of day.
