Queen Bumble Bee on Lavender for Flower Friday

I popped to the garden centre to replace some of the winter pansies that have disappeared in one of my window boxes. I'm not sure if it was all the stormy weather or frost that has killed them. The other ones have been nibbled as well so I'll probably be replacing them soon too.
I wanted to get some 'Bee Friendly' plants as we do get Common Carder bees visiting us in the summer months, in fact I spotted one yesterday during a flying visit.

I decided on a purple Aubretia as they had the 'Bee Friendly' signs. I was very tempted by this lavender seeing the bees all over it, but as we already have two plants I managed to resist the urge.
