Are yours still flowering ?
Mine have finished :(

The Stachys monieri 'Saharan Pink' is still flowering its head off though, i think i prefer them to the byzantines now, their flowers are more significant.
The bees go to these too, so that's good :))

mines are still flowering and the bees are there from early morning until late evening. I was surprised that the bees liked them as to me the flowers are quite insignificant!!
