Busy Bees

 

On my way out of the Desert Botanical Garden, I was drawn to this large Texas Mountain Laurel plant near the entrance.  It was full of blooms and the bees were loving it.  




It seemed like every single bloom had one or two bees happily buzzing around it.  

I love the pretty purple blooms on this plant and it seems the bees love them too.

Extra long walk around the fields at Mt. Vernon the other day, and I came across several hives of bees, they are assuring pollinators are close at hand.

I'm not sure I've ever seen that plant. From the shape of the flower it looks like a relative of the pea family...?
