Happy Easter to all.
And my plants are loving the weather this year.
Strawberries are loaded. Blackberries are in full bloom with pretty good crop already set.
Grape vines is doing very well.
I discovered the wonder of solitary bees this week. Was worrying about the honey bee population. (seems small this year) But I noticed for the first time Blue Orchard Mason Bees and an unidentified small bee. Boy are they doing the job.
Even made a nesting block to see if I can encourage them to stay around.
Fruit trees are doing great. The older ones are loaded. (Pears, Plums, Persimmons) The young ones are blooming, but don’t expect much yet from them.
Only have 1 blueberry bush that clearly survived the 100 year drought last year. At least one more shows signs of life.
What is nesting block?
