Grape Hyacinths This Spring, 2024

This year we have a profusion of wonderful little Grape Hyacinth plants! Here is a group of three plants from our garden.

Bees were attracted to the purple flowers. I was fortunate to capture this bee feeding on one of the hyacinth flowers soon after starting to make photographs.

Some other bugs were also active in the hyacinth patch.
