Not sure what's up with this one. It looks cool, but I can't tell if it's pigment or if it's been stained by brushing against the black ones.

Origanum vulgare (oregano) and Apis mellifera (Western honey bee)
I love watching honey bees do their jobs. Depending on how far the flowers are from the hive, a honey bee typically does a dozen foraging trips a day and visits up to a hundred blooms each time. Individual flowers don’t produce a lot of nectar and bees have to work hard to fill up their ‘honey tanks’. 
Nectar is basically concentrated sap and it’s ‘expensive’ for the plant to produce. If the plant gives out it’s rewards in little dribs and drabs, it encourages the bee to visit every bloom, thus assuring pollination. Here an oregano is ‘playing the system’ in our back garden. This little honey bee spent several minutes on a warm summer afternoon, taking a sip at every single flower on this oregano’s inflorescence.

Garden log 3/31: Things I'll take credit for but have put no effort into this year
Yarrow is thriving, blooming already. I think I've succeeded at using/camouflaging that stump in the middle of the garden, finally, by covering it in perennial flowers with dense greenery.
Oregano, escaping from under the herb bed. She's thriving; I see no downsides.

i think i have given up on the yard now
there are things planted and we'll see what we'll see, but from everything i've read stuff will either die in the 110F heat or later on in a winter freeze so further $ invested may be a waste
and the only solution is to keep everything as potted-and-mobile or indoor plants
there's already been issues with ants and gnats so the impetus to leave them outside and then bring them in later is now very low
so maybe i will just have a lot of indoor plants - at least i can take them with me when i go
the one pothos is at least VERY enthusiastic and all the greenery is *so* fucking mentally soothing
... i just really want to buy so many more plants and i *have* to stop
#maybe if i liked succulents more or cared about flowers#but what i like is green and leafy and e idently none of that is really happy around here#like i have 'almost total shade' and 'lots of sun' options but nothing that will take those PLUS the stupid heat even with watering#gonna plant the the asiatic jasmine anyway just to see but then i guess just try to keep up with watering#i have two sansevieria a boston fern several pothos two peace lilies (one 3 ft) salvia sage oregano#a very sad dieffenbachia and tiny croton and some rosemary that i think gave up the ghost while the mint *may* be hanging on#got some indoor elephant ears from a kit just starting we'll see what happens and a red anne#the hostas and caladiums will come up or not idk#i just wish i knew something that would grow like these weeds lol thank goodness for the horseherb#i realized that sll i want is the same plants we had growing up but we were in sub-sealevel galveston - basically tropical#so all that won't necessarily like it here - people say hostas don't like austin :/#but we had what i'm pretty sure was the asiatic jasmine out at the front of the house and the elephantears and caladium#around the side with the ivy and the dracaena and the azaleas#everything i see that i like in the nursery ends up being labeled 'indoor plant' here#tempted to try to find some pink mulhy even though it's not 'leafy' just bc it grows here and might live#the palmetto does keep coming back after the freezes so that's something#obviously if i wanted to spend a lot my problems would be easily solved but it's not my house so i'm not buying like .. full shrubs
