COLLECTION BEE FRIENDLY To underline our commitment to the environment and to a sustainable future for us all, Redrow are proud to have partnered with the Bumblebee Conservation Trust. We’re working together on a series of projects across the UK, from our show home gardens to large scale landscaping which will help to protect our precious bumblebee population by planting bumblebee friendly plants. We’ve also developed a series of leaflets about why bumblebees are important and how you can turn your own garden into a bumblebee haven. Find out how bee-friendly your garden is by using the conservationTrust’s Bee kind app. Select the flowers that you have in your garden to calculate your score and then receive a tailored list of 10 more flowers to add to help the bees even more.
