It's hard being bee friendly sometimes

Pulmonaria is looking tatty but still enough flowers to interest the bees. Nothing much to replace them at the moment so I suppose I'll have to put up with them for a while. The forget me nots are beginning to psss me off too.

    I know. It didn't seem right to post on C C at the moment but I needed to vent. @bcpathome

    There's plenty of blossom and dandelions out for the bees. 😊

    Well,  I can offer dandelions .
    I don't want to get rid of the pulmonaria - yet. I just want to moan about them for now.

    The holly trees seem to be smothered in flowers this year - more than usual. The blackthorn is going over now, but it's also been especially floriferous this year. Perhaps they all are stressed from last summer, or maybe it's the wet spring - not had one of those for a while. I'm sure your bees will find plenty to eat, when you do decide you've had enough time to grumble
