above 55F and sunny should do the trick. Its amazing how warm a sunny spot can get. I know here it's 45F in the shade but in the sun its quite comfy.
there are many other pollinators though (wasps, other types of bees (not honeybee))
if you have fruit trees you may want to consider getting some mason bees. Not sure where to get them, there are a few suppliers out there. They're solitary bees and do not need a hive, they're fruit pollinators
no worries. I'm sure the pollinators are hard at work for you :)
