The only thing in our garden that smells like licorice is the fennel. We have all kinds of plants that attract bees, butterflies and the occasional humming bird. We have identified at least 3 different honey bee colonies and 2 different bumble bee colonies that come to our yard. It is fun! The down side is that I was stung 4 times this summer (so far). My fault, stupid stuff like putting my knee on a bee while weeding, etc. But we don't complain because we love our pollinators, plus we have several aloe plants just inside the back door.
