Six of the best

There's a real buzz around the garden this week as Pollinator Awareness Week takes off. Even aside the vital stuff they do, it's never a chore to big up the buzzers and flappers that add another, lively dimension to the garden. With the sun out and the wind down, the nector bar was well and truly open this morning and humming with the usual crowd. Here are six plants they couldn't get enough of:-

Centaurea nigra (Lesser knapweed)

Knautia macedonia

Salvia 'Mainacht'

Hosta sieboldiana 'Frances William'

Thymus citridorus

Geranium 'Rozanne'
