I see nothing blooming here in the Azle area N.W. of Ft Worth. I just would have thought that info would have been coming in from futher south. I'm so looking forward to my 2nd year of bee keeping I'm just in a hurry for spring. How can you tell this years stuff from last years??

Eucalyptus globulus (********) 11/22/08 (94589).
Eucalyptus sideroxylon (red iron bark) 12/15/08 (94589)
Rosemary never fully stops blooming, but real surge started 12/20/08 (94706)
Acacia 1/20/09 (94618)
ornamental plum 1/29/09 (94706)

globulus is strange. huge stands of it exist. in a many acre patch, there will be one or two trees in bloom at all times december to may, but they never bloom in synch.
