Cherries.
Our "found"cherry, from Joanne via Candy, couldn't have had more bloom. Last year it had about 4 cherries. This year I think it had about 4 bees, but I guess we (or whoever is here in mid-late July?) will see.
Lots for the bees to chose among. Hopefully they snuck about when I wasn't looking.
"Red-free" espaliered apple from the 2002 UBC Apple Fair |
"Belle de Boscoop" - for all-winter yummy apple desserts - from the 1991 UBC Apple Fair |
As for the wood anemone splendour, the flowers do it all, bees not required.
And this from Diana's and my Kerrisdale walk … evidence of a flowering-cherry "snowstorm" outside Starbuck's … my camera couldn't catch the flying petals (even I can't see them).
Lesson. We need to find and re-instate our Mason-bee houses.
Such beauty !
