Bees, Bees, everywhere

We also are having a wet and warm season, but my bee balm have not bloomed and I hope they do..They are also in the same bed my lilies are and though they have grown, they may not be getting the water needed with my husbands junk in the way..

i do,but i honestly haven't been seeing so many this year.more bumblebees than bee bees.i even planted more flowers too.

I really thought you were talking about the real bees. I am afraid of the real bees but I like to see bees as miniature object. Anyway, I haven't seen Beebalm flower yet.

My beebalm is starting to come up but I don't know how well it'll do this year. Not many came up last year so...... It's always good to see the bees hard @ work. I just wish I saw more of them than I do.

I love bees! They are pretty and without them we would have very little to eat, maybe nothing! I've been stung by a bee just once in my life and that's because I stepped on it by accident when I was barefoot as a child. Bees are peaceful and won't bother you if you don't bother them, something we humans should learn to do.

Hey Grandpa Bob! I know that flowers bring bees and that is one problem that I have about being anywhere near flowers! I love flowers, but am allergic to bees! If I get stung again I could die so not too thrilled to take chances near heavily populated bee attracting flowers!lol I carry an Epipen, but still don't like to have to smell the flowers and pray that I'm not in the line of stingers!

I used to have some wild Beebalm, but do not remember when it bloomed. I would like to have some more (hint) I have not really noticed bees, but things are getting pollinated, so they must be there.

hi Grandpa Bob I loved having bees around as they kept everything pollinized. Did you know in my home state in the Black Hills in the high meadows Beebalm grows wild and so lovely. We took some home and transplanted them into our garden and our bees loved them. My dad had a large aviary and sold tons of honey during the second world war.Now they raise them in the nurseries and its so interesting. I expect to find Indian Paint brush plants in a nursery someday. They grow wild in the high meadows of South Dakota.

Hi grandpa, I so much like seeing the bees around flowers and it is feast to our eyes. You know we have ten acres of agriculture land. In that one acre is garden. Everyday i am definitely go there. And i live with my lovers(plants).... I love Plants....
