A gardening expert says to add a plant for butterflies and bees. Bees are important for food and ecosystem health. They help pollinate the food we eat.

Spring is here, and butterflies and bees need food. We can help by planting flowers with nectar and pollen. Any size garden will help.

Amy Chapman says to add one plant to help butterflies and bees.

Amy said to plant Primroses this month.

Primroses are important for insects like butterflies and bee flies.

Combining Primroses with other flowers helps create a wildlife sanctuary.

Gardens in the UK help many butterflies and other animals. We should make our gardens wildlife-friendly.

Primroses are good food for insects and may have magical properties.

Primroses are an ancient plant and easy to grow in your garden.

Amy said Primroses are easy to buy and grow, and you might see fairies.

Plant Primroses in autumn or spring with good soil and water. They like partial shade and cool conditions.

The RHS says Primroses struggle in chalky soil or dry ground. Add organic matter to help. They won't bloom in heavy shade.

Primroses come back every year but do best in their first year. Consider replacing them for the best blooms.
