May be a bit off topic for sqft because these wild bees are usually
thought of as orchard pollinators.

There is information about wild bee culture at
http://198.22.133.109/book/wildbee.html.  Scroll down about 2/3 for
Osmia information.

You can also lurk or post questions on the bee newsgroup at
sci.agriculture.beekeeping.

Some wild bee suppliers (Osmia and others) are listed at
http://www.uidaho.edu/pses/Strickler/SolitaryBees/supply.htm.

Be sure to spell it correctly if you use a search engine else you won't
get any hits.
