Sadly ours are at least a month or more away....just sticking their heads out at the moment. Only thing out around here is the snowdrops and they have only just appeared.
I have several: "Black Knight" https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/details?plantid=267 is an absolute magnet to all insects and smells divine! The white one doesn't get so much attention. I think it depends on which variety you have.
OK it was just the one bee I saw on buttercups. But it was certainly not because of shortage of other foraging options. So what is that about I wonder? Meanwhile my colonies certainly look like they are thriving. The proportion of buttercup pollen will be miniscule.
I’ve a rambling rose, “Rambling Rector”, in full flower in my garden. I’ve never seen so many honey bees on a plant. I think I’ll try and propagate it, and give one free with every jar of honey sold.
Same here. The thing has been humming for a week
It only hums because it doesn't know the words ;-)
I'll get your coat
