When is lime supposed to flower..here in the north east it has flowered and gone..i suppose like everything else this year it was a month earlier than it should have been.
Any day now in this area, always much later here compared to up north.

Yep, just about to open in the hot and humid conditions.....could this be the one year in five?

A 3 acre field is in full flower with clover and the phacelia field is still going for it..the thistle fields are just starting to go into bud and that is when the good forage starts as it is right on there doorstep..
Regarding phacilia is it a member of the borage family because the honey I extracted yesterday is very similar to borage honey.
You might also be interested in that the first shipments of Amms to arrive and survive in Tasmania came from a farm just outside Thirsk in North Yorkshire; a few miles away from where I live.
I've the details somewhere...If I find them I'll post a link
The 10 acres of clover is going for it big time..the bramble is also going berserk with a bean field following the 15 acres of thistle..
Oh Mama... hope you have plenty of supers.
10 acres field next to my apiary also starts white clover, flowers just coming up, bees not working yet, probably in a few days.
Supers are my problem..I only have 19 and 17 are getting filled at the moment which leaves me with two spares...I will have to juggle and extract or buy more..we will have to see how it pans out.
