Here's a Habitat Helpful Hint: along with our plea to leave the leaves, we also encourage you to leave the stems of dead perennials like coneflower and others intact during the winter for bees to hibernate in. Come early spring, cut back the stalks, leaving stems of varying heights between 8 and 24 inches. When female adult bees emerge from hibernation, they will use these cut stems to start a nest in for their baby bees!
