Tomorrow marks the first day of Autumn!
Whenever I have a chance, I'm getting the garden ready for it's winter sleep. Lots of pruning and rearranging. Meanwhile the bees and butterflies are flitting about getting as much nourishment as possible. I have to remember to prune my butterfly bushes in mid-summer. They really come back well when I do!
The Caryopteris is always full of bees and butterflies. About 30 or more bees sleep on this bush. I think it's one of the most beneficial bushes to have because it blooms so late in the season.
New bunches of cleome are blooming these days as well:
Wishing you a safe and happy weekend!
