Add a Pot & Care Essentials
Most customers add a pot or soil when purchasing this plant.
I have various insect hotels already but after learning that it is best to have replaceable 'chambers/cells' for the bees to reduce diseases, I have found it tricky to find one. That was until finding beevive one which you could build yourself and then the tubes can be replaced each year if they did not hatch. I have lots of mason bees, so I am eagerly awaiting them to find this new nest site. It would make a super fun gift as you can build it - which my partner enjoyed doing for me.

Sprouts of Bristol is expanding with the launch of Sprouts HQ – a new South Bristol premises that will house a dedicated packing space for online orders, an office, studio, and more room for rare and exciting plants. While the Kingsdown shop remains open as usual, the new HQ allows Sprouts to grow behind the scenes and offer even better service both in-store and online. This blog post shares the story behind the move, what customers can expect, and how to keep supporting this independent plant shop through the transition.
