spotted on a thistle, I've left some "weeds" in the garden to see what insects they attract

Yeah KarenL, that wasn't my original plan, but then I noticed that the thistle and pokeweed often had some interesting insects on them. The pokeweed is over 7' now. Then there is the bindweed, I try to keep it under control but it seems to spring up overnight.
thanks MayraSpringmann and Maria!
Wow!! Wonderful!
very nice!
Lovely! I shall have to use that excuse for the weeds in my garden! :)
