| | | please may someone help identify this flower please? Hello, I know the following isn't a wildflower, but i've tried searching everywhere else and it's driving me and my neighbour crazy!
Basically, this plant seems to be a favourite with bees, much more so then other plants i've seen which bees also like, but neither of us know what it's called! Am just starting bee keeping and would love to plant loads in my garden. Hope the pics help, if need anymore information will try and get some!
regards, Joe |
