I always look forward to this time of year when the Autumn Joy blooms. I planted it years ago in a flower bed that gave it optimal sun exposure and optimal photo access so I could sneak up on the Monarch Butterflies. Autum Joy is a source of food for them as the migrate to Mexico for the winter, and my Bed of Joy is directly in their migration path. Alas, this year it seems the Monarch has morphed into a Moth. Oh well, Monarch or Moth...still amazing to capture either one.
The bees love it, too.
pretty plant. I hope more monarchs decide to visit
