Did you know ...... ? Well, you are about to know!
I love researching random things. Some time back I shared some interesting information about Trillium and ants. Now I am going to share information about allium and bumble bees! Bumble bees love allium .... and you will never guess why.
Did you know ..... bumble bees have different length tongues!!!! Dependent on the length of their tongues, they like certain flowers. Allium have short open flowers that are easy for the bumble bees to get at the nectar!
Even more info ....... some bumble bees actually cut the base of deep flowers to drink in the large amounts of nectar.
Simply fascinating!
