"Raspberry Ripple" Zinnia 2022

Even with all the zinnias and other flowers that I planted in the Spring, I still have yet to see a single honeybee in our yard... This time of year, bees should be super busy gathering pollen. So something is obviously not right.

Meanwhile, the flowers have been beautiful. I really like this variety.

A beautiful Zinnia flower Liz. I have lots of bees on my Zinnias but very few Butterflies this year. Our resident Hummingbird also frequents them.

This is gorgeous, the colour vibrant and your shot tack sharp. However, very dire news about the lack of bees, something that is happening more and more. V
