I kinda miss being a beekeeper, if I had even a little space I’d consider setting up a hive or two as a hobby. Alas I’m in an apartment & none of my family will let me set up a hive in their backyards
More than fit in my apartment, bees search a wide area around their hives (~2 miles if I’m remembering right) for plants to harvest nectar/pollen from. If I had a backyard I could do some urban beekeeping especially since I’m near some nice green space but I feel like my building would have something to say if I set up a hive on my balcony (though I have been tempted)

How many houseplants do you need to sustain a hive?

Disguised bee house as bird house.
