I have a lavender bush in my front yard. Besides smelling nice to people, bumblebees seem to love it. I often see half a dozen to a dozen at least as I go by. Other lavender bushes in the neighborhood always have bumblebees, too. (And the lavender bush also seems to be pretty low maintenance; it was there when we moved in a decade ago and seems to be thriving while I've just left it alone.)
