Hi All from the Finger Lakes:
I have yet to see a flower here south of Ithaca, as the Snow has just mostly all melted(still a great deal on North Sides of Hills, and in shaded area), with exception of about 10 Crocus's in my flower garden. I have not so much seen a Dandelion on the Side of a House. Dafadill's are still weeks away from blooming. In working my week hives two days ago(and all my hives made it through the harsh winter...!!!!! Yeah), I witnessed a hard Pollen flow into two of my stongest hives. I was told yesterday at Dadant that it was likely Swamp Cabbage, which might make sense as I live on the edge of Buttmilk Falls / Jennings Pond and the Danby State Forest.
At issue is does there exist (I am certain there must be) a list of the order of bloom for the various flora we have here in the Northeast? I would be highly interested in reading such a list, if someone could point me in the right direction to find it. Thanks in Advance
