      fabulous intense colour! Do you get hundreds of bees on it? we had a bush that buzzed all summer long.

      Thanks everyone!!
      Barbara -we don't actually see all that many bees here, or not honey bees anyway, which is sad because I love bees, we do get lots of bumble bees though.
      Ev -thanks for the invite :-)
