1. The ever faithful Osteospermum
2. Lysimachia
3. Astrancia
4. Field Scabious
5. One of many Poppies
6. Honeysuckles
7. Rodgersia
8. Orange Hawkweed.....as the name suggests a weed but I just love it!!!!!....

Oops! Sorry! Meant to put no 4 (field scabious)!
Blimey I ought to get my glasses on! Not even your post! No wonder you're confused!!
I mean Higgy50! So sorry!
Some stunning photography. Photography is not my thing, I have a ‘point and shoot’, it works for me. I do have loads in flower so these are my real bee magnets, I tried hard to get a bee in each.
Last of the fox gloves but still a big hit.
A rather tattered single dahlia but the bee didn’t mind.
Echium ‘Blue bedder’, these are a bee must.
Antirrhinum
Osteospermum, one for the butterflies
Build it and they will come.
Lets try one pic at a time at least that way if they fail to turn up on the forum I wont of wasted a good half hour lol.
Osteospemum......
A plant I knew nothing about until my sister moved down to Cornwall then on vists to her in the mid to late 90's I noticed these daisy like flowers being grown every where and they glowed in the sunshine. Not seen any bees on mine but a young blackbird to a dislike to one flower which is now on the kitchen window sill :-)

A very old Shropshire Lad.
Corydalis lutea.........
A plant that once you have you will never get rid of (weed lol) I have a blue flowered version with coppery leaves which flowers earlier in the year.
Now this is a flower I guess most of you would never want in your gardens :-)
Ground Elder............
I cant get rid of it so trying to live with it as it comes from next doors garden come tip :-)
