Bees play a fundamental role in pollinating flowering plants. Their activities gathering pollen help to fertilize plants. They fly collecting pollen to all flowers, and by mixing the pistil and stamen's pollen with their feet, the flowers become fertilized.

"Individual bees tend to focus on one kind of flower at a time, which means it is more likely that pollen from one flower will be transferred to another flower of the same species by a particular bee.

Many plants require this kind of pollen distribution, known as cross-pollination, in order to produce viable seeds.Jul 5, 2016" nativeplants.msu.edu/pollination

Bees are essential at pollinating plants, resulting in fruit and flowers. If you don't have enough bee activity in the garden, you have to pollinate the plants yourself. Marigolds attract bees, so plant those if you want more.
