Butterflies and bees on sedum mat

The Sedum spurium in Enviromat sedum matting always looks fantastic at this time of year and it's a great source of nectar for butterflies and bees. 

Here are some pictures I took outside our office this morning (18th September)

bumble bees don't mind a slight drop in temperature so long as they have flowers to feed on
