As most of you know, some plants can’t be pollinated by bees (e.g. certain deep-cupped flowers need humming birds, some cactus with large night-blooming flowers depend on bats, and figs depend on particular species of wasps) but bees are the most generalized and commercially the most important. Poor bees. In the summer I see a couple of dead or dying ones every day.
