Colorful plants and flowers growing outside the fence. Among the plants, on the right side are bright pink phlox (Phlox paniculata, Flammenblume), lush Peppermint (Mentha × piperita, Pfefferminze). On the left side, deep red flowers of Bee Balm (Monarda didyma, Goldmelisse) stand out with their characteristic spiky form. Lower left to center, delicate pink-flowering Japanese Spirea (Spiraea japonica, Roter Spierstrauch) forms rounded bushes with clusters of small blooms. To the left a wilder shrub of Jostaberry (Ribes × nidigrolaria, Jostabeere).

I was trying to get a photo of the little bees after I took photos of this big bumble bee but wasn't successful but I see I got a good picture of one with the bumblebee. I think it's a Ligated Furrow Bee minus it's usual coating of pollen but it has a little bit stuck to it. The big ones is a Brown-belted Bumble Bee Bombus griseocollis I think.
