Re: No Bees


I was lazy this spring and let the garden ivy (pretty leaves, but wow, so
invasive) spread all around my framed raised beds. When it finally bloomed
a few weeks ago (pretty purple flowers) I found myself with lots and lots
of bees, both the regular kind and the bumble kind.

Since none of my intended plants are close to blooming yet, I hope they stick
around the area for awhile.

In the meantime, I keep pulling out the ivy as it finds its way under and
into my beds, but otherwise I'm letting it be(e) :-).
