Here, between the spring and summer flowers we have a few weeks with not a lot of nectar bearing flowers, so for the insects I let the columbines grow where they will in my garden, because while short-lived, their flowering fit exactly in this spot. Also they require little work, they will reseed themselves and grow where they like it.

This time a bunch grew where their last flowers would harmonize quite well with the first peony, making me look like an awesome gardener who planned this all out before 😁
