plants that wont attract bees


Question
Hi Darlene, I would like to plant some flowers and plants outside  of my living room window. The only thing that  concerns me is once I plant these, they will attract bees or other types of insects. I've had bee problems before and was very expensive to have them removed and because of this I was wondering if there is a plant or flower that won't attract bees?

Answer
Elsa,

Anything not blooming will not attract bees. Bees are only attracted to flowers. Houseplants such as pothos vines, philodendron, nepthitus, Go to a nursery and look at the houseplant section. Look for ones with a lot of color in their leaves. Crotons would fit the bill. Some houseplants occasionally bloom but you can pinch off the blooms so as not to attract bees. Like I said look for colorful leaves or interesting shapes. If you have more questions feel free to write again. Good luck.

Darlene
