Ever hear the term ‘bee magnet’? That’s what a Lavender in flower is – a magnet.
The colour attracts them, the nectar keeps them (but not for as long as my camera does!).

lovely photo! Every year I’ve been planting more and more lavender on my allotment, and all for the bees, they just love it 🙂

Just delightful lavender. Am going to use these for my assignment on pollination. Thank you!

That would make good honey all that lavender – you should set up a hive and never worry about pollination again. Plus you get honey for free!

Thank you Shane for linking through to my site and making this issue of coffee grounds more known to people. Coffee grounds do well for most plants and even lavender and rosemary likes it. Keep visiting my site and I will do the same ~ Jo

Great photo – please send us more! I lost most of my lavender during a redevelopment of the house so will gladly watch yours.
