yes here too! and they say there is a shortage? I am planning a little part of my garden to particularly attract them so as well as knautia am thinking monarda in several varieties, sedum herbsfreude 'Autumn Joy', agastsche 'Firebird' and cercium rivulare. I paid attention to the recent Gardener's World's top ten!!
