Texas Garden in January Roses Attracting Bees

Bees are attracted to red roses in our Texas Garden in January.  Two bees are wanting the same yellow pollen.  I watched them as they took turns to sip.

Bees help pollinate as they sip the nectar.  Since there aren't many roses in January the bees seemed extra excited.

The beauty of God's creation soothes my soul.  Two wings are a translucent silver colour. 
 

Gardens can be beautiful in January with a little care.  I covered the plants during the freeze.  It's been a very mild winter in Texas.  Pansies can survive in winter  

I'm growing kale in a blue and white pot as the red roses reach for the sun.  

Red poinsettias go great with red roses.  

This is a climbing rose in a container.  I've been waiting for it to bloom so I rejoice to see the colours of yellow and pink with a little drop of water on the petals.  

It's a special treat to see roses in January in Texas.
