Are you looking for pollinators? you might be better off planting buckwheat and Anise Hysopp to attract them.

count, You may want to take glenns advice and look into Mason Bees from what research I have gathered mason bees look better than bubble bees.

Just my opinion

You dont have to buy them, just make a few Bumblebee hives and they will come to it. its simple to make, same with the Mason bee's, for them you can just string together bamboo.

Here is a link to a Bumblebee plan:
