Beekeeper Salvatore Scotti rescued a swarm of bees from Mile End Park in April .

The bees were given a home at Spitalfields City Farm after a previous colony did not survive the winter .

Mr Scotti said the latest colony had now become a "strong colony" despite the wet weather.

Pollinating London Together said pollinator numbers were "smaller than usual" in the City of London .
