BUDDLEIA...

 

I love Buddleia, white or purple because it attracts all the butterflies and bees.

Little did I know that there was this ‘orange ball’ variety, I bought it, and to my amazement, it attracts bumble-bees, hundreds at the time.

I have images with up to five bees on one flower.

 

You can safely sit next to it and you won’t be bothered by them.

The flowers are small, the heads only about 1 1/2 cm diameter, they smell of honey, quite a heady fragrance, they don’t last very long, especially not with rain.

They dry up, and become like honeycombs.

Warning: Not a shrub for the smaller garden!

 

Have a wonderful day, filled with love and thank you for your visit, M, (*_*)
