Bee balm, or Monarda, is a wonderful addition to any summer garden. It attracts many pollinators, including of course, bees, but also butterflies and hummingbirds. From the Garden Diaries Web site:
"Attractive to both hummingbirds and bees as well as humans, Bee Balm is one of my favorites as an early summer bloomer and easy to grow perennial. Commonly known as Bee Balm or Monarda, Bee Balm is “balm” to all flying insects and enjoyed by humans in teas and potpourri. Each flower head rests on a whorl of showy, pinkish, leafy bracts. Flowers are attractive to bees and butterflies."
This beauty is growing in my neighbor's garden, and it was a joy to shoot these garden beauties who offer so much to the gardener and to pollinators.
I wanted a vintage look for this image and I used On1 Effects 2018 with a custom setting, plus a texture from Jai Johnson.

We also love gardening and the original property was mostly lawn. Over time we updated the landscape many times, and recently we added a naturalistic woodland garden near the wetlands and more cultivated gardens in the front and side yards. I love photographing flowers, and many of my flower photos were taken in our yard or at three very special botanical gardens in New England: Tower Hill Botanic Garden in Boylston,...
