The Home Depot, Lowe's Home Improvement and Orchard Supply Hardware are marketing and selling plants as “bee-friendly” when, in fact, many of them are bee-killing. Neonicotinoids are systemic insecticides applied as seed treatments, and are taken up by the roots and distributed through the entire plant. Neonics harm bees even at very low levels. Stop buying plants from these stores until they remove neonic-treated plants from their nurseries. SAVE THE BEES!

Home Depot, Lowe’s Home Improvement and Orchard Supply Hardware are marketing and selling plants as “bee-friendly” when, in fact, many of them are bee-killing. Neonicotinoids are systemic insecticides applied as seed treatments, and are taken up by the roots and distributed through the entire plant. Neonics harm bees even at very low levels. Stop buying plants from these stores until they remove neonic-treated plants from their nurseries. How can you be assured that you’re growing plants that are truly good for the bees and other pollinators? Buy certified organic plants or grow your own plants from certified organic seeds. SAVE THE BEES.

IT'S TIME TO PLANT THESE TO HELP SAVE THE BEES: 21 BEE-FRIENDLY PLANTS by Hannah Rosengren, freelance illustrator. Do you have more bee-friendly planting suggestions?

Just make sure you're not unknowingly buying bee-killing plants pre-treated with neonicotinoid pesticides from stores like Home Depot and Lowes. That's right, these stores are selling plants pre-treated with neonics that are killing our pollinating friends.

Besides growing the plants that bees love and need to be healthy, take these actions:
