Spring Blooms and Beeswax

Here are the Rhododendrons in the front of the house. I have never seen them bloom. They really are quite a sight to see.


So, new to the potting shed, are these window boxes. I painted them teal to add a little zest and planted them with vine-like annuals. Baby petunias, sweet potato vine, snapdragons, and some beautiful red vine that I forget the name of. :)


The bees have been busy creating burr comb. Because there was extra space between the frames, they created this stuff. It is amazing how they manage to create each hexagon exactly the same size. And here is a close up of some baby bee larvae. In case you were wondering what baby bees may look like.
