Pollinator plant bed update. The purple coneflowers and bergamot bee balm have started to bloom The anise hyssop has had flowers for a week or so. There are still giant pansies and Johnny jump ups blooming and lots of blue borage and calendula getting flowers.

Mostly rudbeckia hirta with the anise hyssop, purple coneflower, and bergamot bee balm around it. The rudbeckia was planted in exactly one fifth of the circular bed.

Auch ein must-have im #naturgarten : die Anis-Duftminze #agastachefoeniculum : die hellvioletten Blütenrispen ziehen viele Insekten an. Samt sich bei Standortgefallen leicht aus, wird aber nicht lästig.

I saw a bee on the hyssop, the rudbeckia is almost open, the purple coneflower stems are longer and the heads spikier, also a too many weird spots ladybug on the hyssop.

Pollinator bed has a little bit of hyssop that's blooming and the rudbeckiais close and the purple coneflower stems are getting longer with a flower like thing on the end. Monarda fistulosa Bergamot bee balm is 5 feet tall and still growing.

The edible border is probably all growing. Viola, Pansies, Borage, Calendula, and Nasturtium which is pictured.

Went back to previous thought on planting hyssop and cut holes with the bulb planter and put cardboard around them. I guess it will be an experiment to see if they do different than the trenched ones. 12 more in the ground! 28 to go.

I need to put sticks by them, which I see I forgot to do. I'm sure the chickens aren't taste testing them or trying to scratch in the hole. They'd never do that.
