My mom's back yard is a pollinator paradise right now, but there was so much goldenrod hanging over the path to the garage that it was hard to get around all the bees. I trimmed back everything that was overhanging the path, but I didn't want to deprive the bees of their meal, so this bouquet is a great way to extend the color.

There are so many drunk ass bees outside my window, I can hear their buzzing inside the house.

Joe Pye weed is their drug of choice.
