Hi Hawthorns! The ladybirds in my garden last year went wild for my parsley, it was lovely watching them!
I would suggest trying to stick to native british flowers eg devilsbit scabious and field scabious for bees and butterflys, corn mint, foxgloves (although remember they are poisionous), mallow, oxeye daisy for mason bees and hoverflies, chives, violets, wild thyme etc etc... I could go mad for this! I,m hoping to develop a little wildlife corner in the lottie this year and just can't wait to get started!
