Bee busily gathering from the coneflower

On the coneflower

We are relatively new to North Carolina, and have learned that a pickax is a useful garden tool. Through hard labor (my husband’s) and perseverance (mine, as in “Please let’s get that plant!”), we have managed to develop several gardens. 

The columbine had big blossoms that seemed to dance, the amaryllis made a regal entrance, and the sunflower was dazzling. Perhaps my favorite picture, though, is of this bee busily gathering from the coneflower.
