I was reading your article in the July Bee Journal ... What
species is that a photo of?  Is it Purple Deadnettle (Lamium purpureum) or
is it Henbit (Lamium amplexicaule). 

Well ... I always thought it was purple deadnettle, but I see that the two are extremely similar and I don't like to get into advanced taxonomy. Either one is probably attractive to bees, though. 

Thanks for reading! Check out August, the story continues ...
