Blooming today are the gorgeous Korean daisies. From a tiny little rooted-cutting passed along from a friend, we have masses and masses of these old-fashioned beauties. I share them with all my clients and not only do they love them for late season color and fragrance, but so do the bees and butterflies on the wing in autumn.

What a great close-up!
Wow Kim, that photo has everything for me. Color, clarity, content and composition! Beautiful!
Thank you Anne and Kathy for your very kind words.
The Korean daisies come in a beautiful array of pinks–from very light almost white to deep peachy rose pink–I waited for the bee to land on the deeper colored flowers. Oftentimes the center florets are granny smith apple green!
