Oregano flowers |
Oregano just started blooming. I don't have a lot of oregano, but they are covered with honeybees.
Lavender is blooming. Lots of honeybees and bumble bees.
Caryopteris continues blooming. Honeybees and bumble bees.
Shallots just stopped blooming and have set seeds. They bloomed about 2 or 3 weeks. They were covered by honeybees.
Chinese chives are almost finished blooming. I don't have a lot. They should be more prolific next year. Bees foraged the chive flowers frequently.
White clover and dandelions - occasional bees.
Catnip - starting to bloom. Occasional honeybees and occasional small pollinating bees. As these continue to bloom, bees are more active on the catnip blossoms.
Buddleia - rare bumble bee visitors. In full bloom now, although "Miss Molly" and "Miss Ruby" are dwindling a bit. "Blueberry Cobbler" just started.
Sweet alyssum, thyme, marigolds - I have not seen bees visiting these. They are in full bloom.
About to bloom: Lemon Balm, Peppermint, Spearmint.
