bumbles love them. i had so many on my 2 yr old honeybee they were weighing it down nearly to the ground last spring. plants only 12in. or so. gave me 10 berries. 
thankful to have a good population of bumbles. i leave piles of branches all around the yard for them.

Millions of wildflowers anhialated today…
Or another way to say that… the first yard mowing of the year.

Living in Virginia I feel obligated to grow bluebells. Such a lovely Spring ephemeral.

question for you citrus growers. my Mineola set 1 fruit last spring at this time. its still on there and just starting to color. i also have 6 pea sized ones that started growing last month. it it normal to have a fruit still ripening while fruitlets are just growing?
I’m new to citrus growing myself, but I think the answer is yes, that’s normal for citrus

Went shrooming this evening for a couple hours… found not one morel mushroom. Some years they just do not show up. Will try again in a week or so.
Found all kinds of pretty wild stuff.
