Lavender Bees

This is actually an established plant near the house, not the new bed. But someday :-).



Our honey bees (this is not a honey bee, but all bees are important) have been quiet.



Our yard full of white clover is brown.



We got some rain last week and things perked up for a couple days. A couple days.



I have the new lavender garden all tucked in. Everyone is doing fine so far. Looking forward to next year. Wait. Just looking forward to fall and winter. It will be awhile before I'm ready (if ever) for next summer.

You probably already know this, but even though lavender is pretty drought tolerant once established - it needs a good steady supply of moisture when newly planted.

We got some beautiful soaking rain over the past 24 hours and its even cooler outside! I don't think the sheep have come in from grazing the whole time ;)
