@alanstanley
Hopefully though they’re quirky guys 🤔

[alanstanley@mas.to]

@Pierrette True - we usually lose them all to a late frost up here in the high lands.

[irisfreundin@troet.cafe]

@alanstanley Only if there are enough bees on their way 🤷‍♀️

[pierrette@mastodon.uno]

@alanstanley or an early drought al least here 😕

[alanstanley@mas.to]

@Irisfreundin for now there still seems to be plenty..🤞

[alanstanley@mas.to]

@Pierrette We probably get a good crop once every 5 or 6 years - but it's worth it when it comes!

[pierrette@mastodon.uno]

@alanstanley yes, a lot of jam😋

[gimulnautti@mastodon.green]

@alanstanley Oh dear. If I let my apricot bloom like that right now, first of all there would be no bees, and the ever-returning frosts would wipe out all the fruits.. It stays covered!

@gimulnautti I guess you aren't in Umbria - at least we have a chance of a good harvest here!
