Thank you Lon R. and Richard M. Those suggestions will keep me and my bees busy for some time to come! I like the idea of using native plants.

Now, I wish there were some plant that would attract flies in the early spring for my Paw Paws. Last year we had a load of too-green chicken/sawdust/horse manure delivered late winter, and it had to sit and cook [and draw flies]. It worked great. Lots of little tiny flies were shooting around the Prolific Paw Paw tree. When I get one of the other Paw Paws blooming, I may order some more [manure] to ensure pollination. I wish there were another way, however.
