Bees in the Garden

Good morning,

Mom called these flowers "Live Forevers" and they certainly do!  I have a long wide row of them on each side of the front walk that have grown from little pieces of a plant my son gave me about 15 years ago.  I think they are ready to take over. 
When I went out to take pictures of the pink blooms I found a bee on almost every bloom.

It was a busy day harvesting pollen! 

All the best,
Lois

    Pretty flowers, Lois, and obviously the bees agree. What are they called?

    Good morning,

    Thanks for all the kind words and for stopping by.

    Diana, the bees tend my garden when I am away. :\ I don't have the same flowers I used to have, but some of them do manage to return even though I am not home year round to take care of them.

    All the very best, my friends,

    Lois

    I love this plant. I just planted one in August and it did last forever. Wonderful Idea to use as a plant down the walkway. HMMMM.... LJ

    Hi Lois, I love Autumn sedum and yes, the bees love them too. Mine is Autumn Joy and are a deep rose. They are a lovely late bloomer to brighten the fall garden.

    I am a big guy, but I am quite scared by those busy little bugs... Childhood's memories?
