A female European wool carder bee (Anthidium manicatum) on Common restharrow (Ononis repens) foraging for nectar.

This Common restharrow is one of my grow successes but the plant was not very popular with the insects. This year that changed and it was visited by the European wool carder bee and Chalicodoma ericetorum.
