Just a Fiery Skipper hanging out in Rose Marvel salvia.
Soon it will be winter so we need to enjoy these butterflies now. Also, time to plan for more flowers next year!

Don’t forget to plant late-blooming plants for pollinators.
They don’t have much to eat this time of year.
Also, new podcast episode on @thegardenangelists! This week, it’s tulips. If you haven’t bought your bulbs, you should before they run out.
The first picture is a honey bee on Bluebird aster. The second is a Monarch on Rose Marvel salvia. It reblooms if you deadhead.
Number is an Orange Sulphur on Fireworks gomphrena, and number four is a Fiery Skipper on Mexican bush sage.

Hurry little Monarchs! It’s time to go to Texas and then down Mexico way.
Big cold front headed to Oklahoma.
These Monarch butterflies were enjoying Stachytarpheta 'Nectarwand Red'
(Nectarwand Red False Vervain) that I bought from Bustani Plant Farm.
After the front the weather will warm up for any stragglers.
