Smooth Penstemon (Penstemon digitalis) is an attractive native plant. I love watching the bees climb in and out of its tubular flowers 😀 This plant does well in full sun to light shade and is an excellent food source for long-tongued bees.

Late spring blooms from Ohio Spiderwort (Tradescantia ohiensis).

Spiderwort blooms in the morning, closing by mid-day. Its also an important food source for native bees, including bumble bees.

Two different houses in California. One with grass lawn, the other with native plants and teaming with wildlife.

🐝 Both homes are beautiful—but if you had to choose, which one would you call home: the one with a lush native garden teeming with life, or the one with a tidy grass lawn offering little more than scenery?
