As I walked down the steps to the main high street in Aldeburgh, I saw these beautiful lilac blooms. And a myriad contented bees.
Above, blossoming blackberries being pollinated by our bumbles.
Below, the beautiful purple blooms are irrestistible at Benjamin Britten's house.
A flower bee enjoys the alien beauty and elixir of our returning Passiflora.
A Holly Blue butterfly reclines on the blackberries.
A hover fly or wasp of some sort on the Campanula!
Our Lavender has blossomed this week and we are the proud hosts to many bees!
What a joy!
How are your bees?

Lovely flowers, dear! I love your bees too. The blue butterfly is so pretty. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletePassiflora looks amazing. Mine is getting bigger and bigger. I should blog about it next month. Love to see the blue butterfly. I haven't had one of those in the garden this summer, but I had a painted lady.
ReplyDeleteThose bees are as busy as could be. I love that passion flower. Our climate is not warm enough to winterize those.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful flowers. Enjoy...
Hugs, Julia
Aldeburgh is so lovely, as are these photographs.
