What is Blooming in Our Garden

Dear Steemit friends :

Greetings! We are located in Tampa Bay area of Florida and would like to share with you what's blooming at this time of the year in our garden.

We planted our edible garden to have flowers year-round in order to attract and feed honey bees, other pollinators, and pest predators.

These flowers are not only pleasing to the sight but also help maintain a healthy ecosystem. When little beneficial insects are abundant and happy, so are the plants in the garden and the people :-)
