Re: Orchard Bee Houses

Toni asked these questions about an "orchard bee house":
>1.  At what height should I put the house?
>2.  Where should I put the house?  I was thinking about putting it right
>between my HT rose beds and raised bed vegetable area.
>3.  Will yelllow jackets live in these houses?

I know less than nothing about bees, but I *do* know an expert on the
subject, via the 'Net.  Toni, if you have access to the newsgroups side of
the Internet, go to rec.gardens and post this query.  That will elicit a
response, I'm sure, from Dave Green of South Carolina.  He's a a
professional beekeeper and very willing to share info with gardeners looking
to increase their local bee populations.

If you lack Web access, let me know and I'll repost your questions there myself.
