Greater Honeywort Pink and White - I found this flower in a specilty section for plants bees love. It has adapted to our garden in strive. Indeed our honeybees do love them. at one time it was thought bees got wax for their hives from the flowers. The blossoms are not very large but grow in abandance. Each bee can have each own tiny pollen portal. The honeywort flower is from the borage family. I took this macro floral from below to allow the viewer to see the inside of the bells and the lovely foliage.
The mood is an early Sunday morning. Morning dew is still sitting on the leaves and flowers. One tiny larger drop is hanging heavy on one of the bottom leaves. I am glad I found this honeywort when I did. It is not easily found in stores and plant catalogs.
