Orchard bees may be preferred to honey bees in the garden.
Specifically, the insect in question (Osmia lignaria) has the appeal of being native to North America whereas honey bees (Apis spp) are European imports from colonial times. The orchard bee also is focused upon the immediate garden whereas honey bees will fly miles away from the home hive. Orchard bees offer the additional advantage of extreme reluctance to defend themselves and rely upon far less potent stingers than honey bees.
