I have a bunch of this wild flower growing at my place. Anyone know what it is? The bees love, lots of honey and bumblebees feeding on it.

Thanks

Bugloss -Blueweed...
At least it looks like it, plenty of it blooming around here, we still laugh about it, when we moved here I kept asking everybody if they knew what the blue weed was called, turns out it's called ... you guessed it, Blueweed.

Thanks OC that is definitely what it is.

Thanks guys I always wondered what it was.

I think the roots of that plant produce a red dye, but not water soluble.
Also flowers and leaves dried and powdered can be made into a paste and used externally for inflammation.
We don't have any in our area here.

HaHa I didn't know it was a weed and transplanted it into my garden, beautiful flowers.

beautiful weeds are my kind of flowers! wish I had some around here id put em in all the flower beds.
