Clementine flowers – won’t be long
10Thursday 02 April, 2015 by Uncle Spike
Along with new leaves appearing in the clementine orchards, little flower buds are getting ready too. In a couple of weeks the whole place will be a different colour, and 200,000 bees will descend. The noise is amazing – nature at its best!

Ahh Spring time in an orchard…I so miss it.

Me nooo…. there are thousands of hives all around here (predominantly pine honey from the mountains), but the hives are kept near the farms during winter and springtime

It didn’t occur to me that the bees would be out in force, but now that you’ve mentioned it, of course it would! The hum in the air must be amazing!

Hence we get flower honey from our neighbouring farm – probably partly pollen-sourced from our trees!

I never realise as I’m here all the time. When the boss comes home each weekend she says it’s really noticeable .)
