Ross asked: "I am planing to get a bee swarm soon and am designing a plant list to cover all times of year.
I am particularly interested in early flowering plants, if any of you could give any sugestions. thanks so much"

Ross,
The beekeepers claim that it takes about a million flowers to make a pound of honey so unless you are planting your lawn into white clover, a few planted flowers won't make much difference. But it all helps, I suppose.
