The landscaped area close in to the house always seems to peak around mid-July. This was primarily a laurel hedge when we moved here, but after a lot of work I think this is much nicer. The pollinators seems to agree.

A landscaped area filled with various small Japaenese maples and flowers, including tall Asian lilies, garden phlox, and penstemon plus two copper kinetic wind spinners in front of a single story building.

          Ox-eye daisies are invasive here and I generally mow them- I let one patch reach full flower just for fun, and many pollinators do love them (I'll chop/pull before they seed). Here it is visited by a Leafcutter Bee- always fun to see these little folk.

A cute small bee gathers pollen from a daisy flower head. The bee is black with thin white stripes on its abdomen and fuzzy whitish hairs around its head, thorax and presumably the underside of its abdomen, which is coated in bright golden pollen. It has nearly transparent rather narrow wings, with dark veins. There are two shots showing the bee on the centre golden part of the daisy which is composed of many tiny yellow disk flowers, this part is surrounded by white ray flowers (this is what looks like petals, but they aren't, they are each flowers). We see the bee nearly straight from above in one shot fairly closely cropped; the other shot is a bit to the side so that we can see its pollen coated underside. This view has a wider shot showing the whole flower head, and a cropped view focussing on the bee. We can see the characteristic perkily raised butt of the leafcutter.

            Macro photograph of a cluster of tiny pink common milkweed flowers, held tightly together by the photographer. Each flower has five rounded, hollow, and very smooth pink petals, a black dot between each petal, and a whitish center with a pink star pattern. Each flower resembles a little piglet, with a round nose, small black eyes, and pink ears.

                        A garden full of large growing plants and mulch in the walkways.  Also some buckets for watering, now that it hasn’t rained for 3 weeks. 

Flowers left to right: yellow marigolds, a clump with zinnias and orange marigolds, cream-colored marigolds (in the distance), and a large “bush” of orange-red Mexican Sunflowers (Tithonia).
