• Yep they don't like the dry weather very much.

    They don't like the tomatoes I have planted, so at least I can grow those in the ground. The peas are also safe. Salad veg though, lol,good luck.

    If you have room for a shrub mahonia / forsythia also flower early and help bumblebees, underplanting with snowdrops, alliums etc. also helps.

    Some Geranium take shade and are very tough, and attract pollinators and flower later in the year.

  • forsythia

    There was actually a shit ton of forsythia in the garden when we got the place, was wildly out of shape though and had to be hacked out to repair the crumbing wall, which as you can see is still a work in progress.
