Choose a pollinator-friendly plant - great suggestions would be: herbs, lavender, verbena, catmint, hardy geranium, winter heather, or mahonia
Consider planting to cover all seasons
Buy a pesticide-free plant (pesticides will harm the bees) if you can
Ask at your local garden centre or nursery which of their plants are pesticide-free, peat-free, or organic
Make sure the plant is healthy and the roots haven't overgrown the pot
Consider growing your own plants from seeds or cuttings, this guarantees they will be pesticide free

Best is buying from an organic nursery that does not use pesticides. These local nurseries have said they don't spray plants but they don't have an organic certification :
Farm Lodge/Warwick Market (stall by town hall) : www.lodgefarm-plants.com
Hill Close Gardens: https://hillclosegardens.com/plants/plant-sales/
Online you can find many organic nurseries some even grow plants for bees like ‘Bee happy’ or ‘Rosy bee’.
