Tiny Bees. Big Summer Pollination Power.

Leafcutter bees are tiny, about the size of a watermelon seed. Leafcutter bees are gentle summer pollinators that carry loose pollen on their bellies, helping pollinate up to 95% of the flowers they visit. Their small size makes them especially good at reaching tiny blooms, helping your garden produce more flowers, fruits and vegetables.
