We have grown Sedum Autumn Summers for 3 or 4 years and never seen this many honey bees on them before. There must have been 150 going and coming in the few minutes I watched and took these photos and my first thought was to wonder if a patch of these plants would be good forage for a bee keeper? They are very easy to propagate by cuttings and take very little water...

Clicked & enlarged; that IS a lot of bees. Sedum is really fairly simple to grow, IIRC.We had it in Oregon, but I haven’t seen it here.
