Agreed; French Petite is a fine fruit here in east Tenn. Works well for us,
without sprays, despite black knot and brown rot pressure. We had plum jam
from this one on waffles last night.

The kids found a few morels at two places in our woods; we, as Lucky, want
to know how to manage these for more production. Enjoyed a meal of these
last week picked from a campus gravel parking lot.

Re: [NAFEX] bumble bee as pollinatorOne can be around bumble bees all their
lives and believe that these critters are not aggressive. Find a nest. Stick
your finger in it and be prepared for a long sprint. I used to own a ranch
in Oregon, near Prineville on the Crooked River. Come to think of it maybe
your bees are pretty mild. They grow some strange crops in that area.

I've been around bumblebees all my life here. I even find it useful to
plant borage to encourage them in the garden as they pollinate beans and
peas to give better set. Guess the species here are just less aggressive.
Of course I used to keep bees, so stinging insects don't bother me that
much.

Ah! Life must be easy in Oregon. I know a bumble bee and I suspect you
have never bothered a nest. Sweat bees (underground) are also aggressive but
usually if I run fast they give up in a few yards. Although, when watering
some new trees last summer I disturbed a nest (flooded), a few of them kept
up the chase for 30 or so yards.
