Cue the Janet Jackson 🎵

(Planted some bee balm from seed a few years back in the spot where we had a compost delivery dumped, which covered the grass for a few weeks, killed it, and left the soil super fertile and ready for planting. now we have about 10 square feet of this purple bergamot—it gets bushier every year and is COVERED in pollinators non-stop. So amazing!)

    Wow! Fantastic! Well done!

    I need to get me some monsrda fistulosa, I honestly don’t mind the powdery mildew.

    Oh how beautiful. I would sit there for hours watching them.

    Jealous. My bergamot isn’t attracting as many pollinators as it has in the past.

  4. The pollinators told all of their friends about the pot of gold they found!

    Amazing. I haven’t seen so many in one place in a really long time

    Mine has been a big hit this year too! Everything has grown super tall including this though….so my bushiest one has flipped over now and has a big hole in the middle haha
