"Sedums: A Colorful Feast for Bees and Flies" As September arrives, the Kamchatka Stonecrop (Sedum kamtschaticum) bursts into a vibrant display of flowers, attracting the attention of Western Honey Bees (Apis mellifera). These diligent workers can be seen collecting pollen from these autumn-flowering sedums in Blithfield. Not only are they busy gathering pollen, but they also seek nectar from Iceplant (Sedum sp. ) flowers in Kent. In gardens across the United States, Kamchatka Stonecrop thrives beside cascading water features, adding a touch of natural beauty to any landscape. Meanwhile, Biting Stonecrop (Sedum acre) flourishes in Breckland and on shingle beaches like Chesil Beach in Dorset during July. Its delicate blooms create a picturesque scene against the coastal backdrop. The allure extends beyond bees alone. Tachinid Flies (Echinomyia fera) join the feast by feeding on pollen from Iceplant flowers in Warwickshire's gardens during September. Greenbottle flies (Lucilia caesar), known for their iridescent sheen, take breaks on Iceplant flowers as well while meticulously cleaning their front legs. Amidst this botanical spectacle lies an enchanting garden patio display adorned with terracotta pots and a charming statue of a duck. Sue Daly's expertise at SpecialistStock captures this captivating scene perfectly. With their diverse colors and textures, sedums prove to be not just visually stunning but also vital sources of nourishment for pollinators throughout different seasons and locations worldwide.
