Hoverfly Picture
Picture of hoverfly was taken in September on the flowering Sedum spectabilis. This plant is grown for its flowers that appear in the autumn. The flowers attract bees, butterflies and other insects such as hover flies and is a great herbaceous plant for encouraging bees into the garden. Hoverflies are beneficial insects in the garden for pollination and pest control (aphids).
