They don't have as many options for pollen this time of year so they show up en masse to the broccoli. It's neat to see a little so much activity in an otherwise still winter garden.Abbey Forneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14866614408026320025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482840421768272273.post-30362021738651055372011-01-21T09:41:59.598-06:002011-01-21T09:41:59.598-06:00RB I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one f...RB I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one feeling guilty yet pleased with my nandina. I'm willing to part with the privets, but the nandina I don't think I'll be giving up my nandina unless I can find something equally as functional and pretty to replace them. <br />Speaking of shady shrubs, have you tried cleyera japonica? I have two and they are growing very slowly.Abbey Forneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14866614408026320025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482840421768272273.post-51929996555493473992011-01-19T05:11:36.020-06:002011-01-19T05:11:36.020-06:00Great pics.

They have such great winter color, evergreen leaves, and even grow in the shade. Hard to give 'em up.RBellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02144562147128230710noreply@blogger.com
