Sunflowers are fantastic, but mine are about a month or more away from blooming.

The lavender is just starting to bloom and I know it'll be full of bees. I almost feel guilty harvesting it.

I can safely say that leaf cutter bees love my roses' leaves. :-)

This is the first year that I'm making a real effort to see what the bees prefer since a local bee nut wants native bee pictures for his website, plus I now have honeybee hives in the back yard. I'm amazed at how many teeny tiny bees there are here.
