Re: Gardening Thread
In nature the bees would use plant stems, so we're just replicating that. Then there's parasitic wasps/spiders, the bees just have to man up? Or bee up?
I'll try to upload some pics in a bit, that should be a laugh.
PS - yes sorry Darksky yes you could use canes but bear in mind the bee has to crawl up, lay its egg, leave a package of pollen and seal it. So you'd want 4 or 5mm diameter I'd think.
