We spent a couple of weeks doing some wonderful landscaping and we are calling it "The bee garden" because it is behind the hives. My hives face Southwest which is a wonderfully sunny area but I have a few trees nearby for shade in the summer time and we love sitting in the yard or on our porch watching them and listening to them. We really wanted to have a stand of pines and we got 4 white pines which I will be able to make pine needle baskets with them when they get bigger. We also dug up some larger evergreens around the yard, a rhododendron, an azalea, and a couple of other smaller pines we had gotten as seedlings for free last year and had planted in the yard and they had grown. All of this landscaping still has a way to go but we are really happy with the results. |
