Hard as it is to believe after the apple tree planting fiasco of 2021, my husband was back at it the other day … ripping up the dead apple twigs and filling the holes with bigger and better new trees.
.

.
He came home with a beautiful flowering cherry I would have loved for the back lawn where I could see it every day….
.

.
So naturally he planted it on the far side of the barn where it’s completely blocked by the building and out of line of sight from our house.
.

.
It will however be prime viewing when playing pool in the man cave.
.

.
It’s a pretty tree and was an immediate bee magnet. In no time flat they were circling and we were stepping away.
.

.
I might just have to buy another for my viewing pleasure.
.
It’s time to set up an apiary!

I know the bee population is in steady decline but you wouldn’t know it at our house. We’re loaded!

I don’t see a LOT around my house but my flower beds need redoing.
I also need to trim up my apple trees so the scent gets in the air….

We have a sub Saharan black cherry tree in our backyard. Beautiful white flowers…and it produces probably 1000+ cherries a season. Problem is, we cannot possibly pick them all, and they attract every racoon within earth’s radius.
