Thanks! I'm not really a beekeeper, but I am a beefeeder. We have a beekeeper near us, and out hydrangeas are just swarming with honeybees, so I guess that counts.

I am a bee fan. I have many different kinds of bees gathering and pollinating and nesting in my garden and in the lane and I grow certain plants just for them. Methinks if your garden is bee friendly, you are a beekeeper Smiling

OK, then. I am a bee and frog keeper. I think the frogs multiply daily. I just love them. I love all the different bees too. Well, maybe not hornets.

If Dave keeps adding badges I am sure I will eventually find more I need to have.

I like Honeybees and have lots here planted to attract them. Been seeing lots of bees this year.

Hello Iris lovers. I have been looking over the threads and plan on visiting frequently. I am not into Irises as much as I was, but still have some great survivors.

I'm finally popping in to say HI! It has been hectic here and I've been outside almost all summer.

I did accomplish digging the Schreiner Lilliput Iris and also recieved three new tall bearded ones!! Thank you California Sue! My neighbor divided all her Schreiner's and I had to turn down her offer of some. I have so many to deal with right now.

I replanted every one, but next year, I am going to re-dig, give some back to my neighbor and set some on the free pile.
