I guess I should make sure that at least some seed pods survive!

#1 - Bees adore this Agastache nepetoides (Yellow Giant Hyssop) - new to my garden this year thanks to greenthumb and ecnalg. I find it interesting how only a few of the little flowers on each spike open up at the same time. I kept thinking the poor bees were getting the dregs from fading blooms, then I realized the flower spike doesn't bloom all at once, so the lucky bees get a steady supply of fresh nectar.

#2 - I'm hoping this Black Swallowtail finds its way to the host plants I have waiting for it!!
