Busy as a Bee

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Ward County Notary Services 607851

During the Fall of 2019 I harvested a few scraggly plants that the City gardeners left to die in front of my Ward County Notary office downtown Minot. I nurtured them along and now two years later I have two pots brimming full that I am taking home to hang in planters off my deck.

 

 

Shortly after hanging the plant it had a visiter that hung around for hours.... just walking around, covering the same ground over and over underneith the plant.

Of course I could go off on a hundred tangents here but sticking to this topic the bee was busy doing who knows what. Just like people may have thought about me when they saw me digging up these plants in the Fall of 2019.

BTW, anyone know what this plant is?

A. I was wondering where the bee came from as up to this past week we still had freezing temps at night. That being said, it was truly a joy to see this pollinator in my yard. Thanks Ron and Alexandra Seigel , any guess as to what this plant is? the leaves are similar to a jade plant.

Thanks Kathy Streib . Once it took off it really took off but it seemed to take at least 9 months to get going.

Hi Bob... all I know is that it's some sort of succulent... but I have little knowledge otherwise... unlike you, I have a black thumb, not a green one! :)

I am pretty good with most plants Nina Hollander, Broker but there are a few that meet their doom under my care.

It would be neat to get inside that bee's head for a few moments to see what it was thinking.

I agree Myrl Jeffcoat , I watched and watched but I could not figure it out. I don't know how bumble bees nest but maybe that had something to do with it.
