Yeah. She's really struggling this year compared to last after transplanting. But she's not out as you can see. I'm nursing her along as best I can. #PNW #MagentaMonday #Flowers #Garden

A side by side collage of two images of a magenta lupin stalk, one in shade, the other in the sun. No bees though, sorry. In a garden with some other greenery and plants around including alliums and nasturtium. A tomato cage is also visible. JG Photograbee 2026.

Belated happy Saturday beeps. Here's some sleepy bumblebees in the hyssop last week while their sisters work away. #Quiet #BlueSkyArtShow #bees #gardening #flowers #PNW

All I can do is add some shots of her with Vitamin Bee from last year at the height of her glory for #FlyDay. #Flowers #Gardening #bees

Photograbee@photograbee· Jul 5

I'll just add some video from the same patch last week. Cool day. (Pun intended, it was in the upper 60sF.)

Photograbee@photograbee· Jul 4

Funny aside, I almost invented a new hashtag just now when I typed #BlueSkyArtShoe on accident at first! Haha! That is a whole other campaign I'm not quite ready for! 😂✌️ Here's another #wide bumblebee to bless your timeline. #BlueSkyArtShow #Flowers #bees

Close-up wide shot of a black and yellow bumblebee with large pollen pants resting kind of flat out on the flat yellow center of a white Shasta daisy at dusk. A petal obscures her face. Jan Groh Photograbee 2026.

I'll add a little video from the sunflower patch showing how loaded it was with #bees. Both longhorns and honeybees. #pdx #PNW #InsectThursday

It's okay. I got #RoseWednesday covered with this collage of recent captures around my neighborhood. I'm so blessed to live here. #pdx #roses

And I'm reprising last year's fairy painted cosmos so I can slip in some vitamin bee too. I didn't plant any this year. I had my hands full with plot recovery. Maybe next year. 🤞❤️🐝💐 #bees #flowers #bloomscrolling

A variegated magenta cosmos flower with dark margins and soft white stripes. It is set off by a nice blurred bokeh background so it almost appears to be floating in the air. Jan Groh Photograbee 2025.

Semi close-up of two pink and white variegated cosmos blossoms in diffuse daylight. A longhorn bee with big yellow pollen pants feeds on the lighter one to the left. The other is darker with incomplete stripes setting it off. Jan Groh Photograbee 2025.

I can only reprise some with #bees from last year as I was too busy with Last Thursday sorry. #SundayYellow

It really was! What started as a light drizzle became a steady downpour later! Good job I brought my brand new baby tent after all! It wasn't big enough but at least my art was all safe! I'm still recovering. #LastThursday #pdx

Jan's colorful notecards on display under a small tent in the rain on NE Alberta Street in Portland Oregon 6/25/26.

View looking west down a very wet Alberta Street in NE Portland Oregon showing sparse crowds among some tents and a dedicated mom and daughter selling their jewelry on a blanket under a regular umbrella. Cloudy skies. A water drop on the lens partially obscures the scene too.

Photograbee@photograbee· Jun 24

And... It's Pollinator Week! June 22-28th, 2026! Yes, I almost missed it! But not quite. #bees You DO know there are thousands of other pollinators besides bees right? RIGHT? Mention one for $1 off any card or magnet tomorrow at Last Thursday. #birds #insects

Photograbee@photograbee· Jun 24

Almost forgot to post promo for tomorrow - I'll bee at Last Thursday on NE Alberta Street somewhere between NE 15TH and NE 30th from 6-9 pm 6/25 with bees on! Come find me. #pdx #MadeInOregon #arts #crafts

Photograbee@photograbee· Jun 23

I can only add an older shot of a bee on veronica for the occasion. And a heads up that it looks like Last Thursday on Alberta is a go as it will be cool enough for me! More to come on that stay tuned. #bees #photos

A honeybee feeding on deep purplish blue Veronica flowers.

Here she is last year at the height of her glory with bees on...🥹❤️🐝💐 I named her Aurora after the Aurora Borealis. #Flowers #bees #gardening
