advice on which flowers attract insects and if they are beneficial to the environment
What flowers are best to attract bees and butterflies into my garden? Do you have tips/advice on how I should lay out these flowers and what colours they should have?

Patio grout very yellow
We’ve had a beautiful patio laid by a professional. Pale grey mottled granite style slabs. The gaps were filled with a dry sand/cement mix. Whilst it was being done I queried the colour as it was very yellow, but was assured it would turn grey. A month on, it’s still yellow. It cost a fortune and I’m gutted. The yellow mix has also bled around the edges oF the tiles, obviously wouldn’t have been noticeable if it had dried grey. What has gone wrong and how can it be fixed?

cost of fitting a sleeper raised bed in the garden
I am interested in fitting a raised bed in my garden. How much will it cost in terms of the supply costs to put together a sleeper raised bed. What are the steps involved in completing this work by myself? I am guessing it is not an especially difficult job to do DIY, is that correct?
