NAFEXers,
Does anyone have a technique or “trick” they have successfully used to get
honeybees to visit pear blossoms? Pears are known to have little or no
nectar so the bees would rather visit dandelions than pear blossoms. I have
lots of pear trees blooming but no honeybees visiting them but I see the bees
bringing into their hives dark orange and yellow pollen probably from
dandelions.
Thanks,
Bob

Just received a Westcot and a Hargrand apricot both on Krymsk 1 rootstocks
from Cummins Nursery.
Will be planting shortly.
Then, the long wait...
