I loved all of it, and you explained it so well!!
I hope we will make a few converts to Wildflowers during this exciting week.
Thank you for a lovely article.

Beebrush, Aloysia gratissima bees love it and it has a lovely scent.

That was great! Many of the pollinators are declining in population, which makes me appreciate them even more!

Josephine, that beebrush is beautiful

Thank you Vicky, it is a very under utilized large shrub that should be in every pollinator's garden.

Thank you Jospehine and Linda! Hi again Vic.

I agree, that bee bush is beautiful! You and Linda both come up with beautiful wildflowers!

I'm really hoping we have some converts, there are so many beautiful wildflowers! and Like Linda said, the pollinators are in decline.

Loved the thoughtful article. Good reason to have lots of colors and flower shapes!
That is a beautiful beebrush.

Thank you Anna. Well, variety is the spice of life for pollinators too.

Boneset and Marsh Flebane near the pond are just starting to bud. They are pollinator magnets and always full of buzzing little insects during the fall months, along with the goldenrod.

Boneset-

This is one of the most visited plant, by the most varied pollinators in my garden- regarded as a common weed, yes it does have to be vehemently deadheaded to prevent it taking over but i wouldn't be without it
Feasting on Ragwort Bumble, Speckled wood, and Comma plus hoverflies and Honeybees.







@wildflowers Superb article ...that I have now saved....throughly enjoyed

Bee, thank you for reading! I'm so pleased that you found and enjoyed the article.

Your ragwort flowers are my kind of plant indeed, clearly being enjoyed by the pollinators.
