dc0145a's blog: May 5th still cloudy, cool

Posted on May 5, 2019 4:32 PM

Where is spring? It's 55 degrees as I write; cloudy, drizzle. ugh I soooo need to see the sun.
Yesterday May 4th attended Rose 101 presentation put on at Mahoney's Garden Center Winchester, MA
Excellent presentation; while at the garden center, I purchased Lady In Red climber (Mother's Day present) and Cape Diamond roses.
The Lady in Red will look beautiful on my mother's arbor.

Checked on the bees we installed Tuesday April 30th (carnolians). The queens still had not been released from their cages; don't know
why the bees are taking so long to chew through candy cork. I ended up releasing the queens; it's been 5 days - long enough already.
Poor bees; it's been so cool and rainy. They have sugar syrup and powdered pollen to sustain them at least until weather improves.

Despite the weather, I planted more onions today 200 Yellow Sweet Spanish and 200 Walla Walla. Not much else happening.
Cheers All
