May 29, 2014…My wife said there were five bees on this earlier, but when I grabbed the camera, I only caught one bee.
May 28, 2014…My neighbor’s New Zealand Cabbage trees are blooming. I’m glad it’s on someone else’s property because there is a strong odor associated with it. Our bees love it.
May 28, 2014…New Zealand Cabbage has been blooming awhile. Our bees are all over it, all day.
May 27, 2014…A skipper is probing the depths of this Pink Chintz Thyme for nectar. In the video, you can see it try several spots before finally succeeding. The bees love this plant as well.
Adventures in Natural Beekeeping 
Your close-up videos are really amazing! It is nice to compare plants, I’ve never heard of New Zealand cabbage. Another strange point is that although I agree with you on some of the plants like the borage poppies and cotoneaster, my hypericon does not attract many bees. I love your cute American bumble bees! Such a great time of year in the garden. Amelia
You might have the low growing St. John’s Wort (Hypericum Calycinum)
instead of the more upright kind (Hidcote Hypericum).
I’ve never seen bees on the low creeping St. John’s Wort. I bet that’s the difference.
