Diary week two Jan 7th - Jan14th

2005

January 8th and 9th 2005 The weekend was mild but windy especially on the Saturday. On Sunday John helped me put the roof back on the apiary shed.

It was mild enough for a few bees to venture forth and it seemed well worthwhile planting out aconites in the allotment moved from the old Apiary. I have decided to put early flowering bee plants (snowdrops aconites and crocus) under the shade of the Worcester apple tree

I planted more shallots, weeded and continued clearing up blackberries and goosberries with a fire in the bin.
