This week on Garden Guys, Tom and Darrin try to compete on bee stories; How to attract them to your landscape, and how to hopefully keep them there. Did you know there are over 900 different native bees in Colorado? It’s not just the ol honey bee flying around out there! Go and take a look in the garden yourself. May take a few minutes, bring some coffee. Then we’ll talk about how to avoid double digging. But only after you’ve done it at least once.
