It establishes that declining bee populations necessitate gardeners' intervention by planting habitats rich in nectar for energy and pollen for protein. The guide advocates for prioritizing native plants and specific bloom characteristics—like blue, purple, yellow, or white open shapes—while avoiding the use of pesticides.
