what kind of flowers do i need to buy to pollinate my cucumbers and squash plants?

i know i can do this myself, but i read somewhere that planting flowers around the garden will bring bees to do the work for me and eat other bugs....

1. NONE. ALL plants have methods of attracting bees and they do it all by themselves, no matter what kind it is. They need no help
2. I used sun flowers.
3. My family has been growing squash & cucumber for years & never grew anything to help pollination.The bees do what is necessary but on the off chance there aren't any bees around you use the male flower to pollinate the female flower using a cotton bud or something similar.
4. I think if the bees don't get there, the wind will help you out good luck
