Just the opposite, Bees and butterflies love it.

I've been told that the yellow flowers on this plant are harmful to bees. Is this true?

Thanks for your help Laura!
And the warning, they've already cut a chunk out of it... fortunately only a small one!

Hi Claire
I assume your Ragwort is flowering now so best time is to do so after flowering.
If your neighbours are complaining you might be able to do a 'trim' that makes it less obstructive and/or tell them you be will cutting it back later this year.
Do not give them permission to cut it though or else you might end up in the same situation as this poor woman

How do I prune Ragwort?

I've inherited an established Ragwort (Brachyglottis Dunedin 'Sunshine') which has been neglected for some time and is now far too big.
Can anyone tell me when is the best time to prune heavily and how to go about it? It's obstructing my neighbour's view coming off her drive so drastic action is required!
Thanks for you help
