Hi all,

We have a plant growing in our garden that seems to be attracting lots of bees. I was wondering if anyone knew what it is?

Borderline

Looks like Phacelia Tanacetifolia, sometimes called Purple Tansy.

I think that's Phacelia tanacetifolia.  It's often included in wild flower mixtures.  As is borage, which is the one behind it with the drooping buds.  Both valuable plants for pollinators, as you've discovered.

Thanks for the help both 👍
