I planted lamb's ears because my kids love to touch the velvety soft leaves, and I hadn't really thought of it as a "bee plant". But my little clump has been buzzing away with them, and one morning last week I even found this guy, fast asleep with dew on his back. It's much easier to take pictures of bees while they're asleep!!
