And sad to say, but many many new ones I sent out for seed production will not appear b'c of weather conditions at the places where my wonderful seed producers garden.

All to say, beautiful photos Terry and yes, I do recognize the names of most of them.

I ordered Fred's Pink and Purple Bumblebee seeds last month, and he sent me Sunrise Bumblebee as a bonus! I also ordered Tania's Green Bumblebee and Lee Goodwin's Bosque Blue Bumblebee, so I'm looking forward to having bumblebees pollinating all over the place next spring.
