Mr. Ben, you mentioned up north cold, cold short season, yet bees prosper to the contrary.
I discovered living in Montana, the grass is much higher in protein compared to southern grass. Blue gamma, buffalo grass obtains a height of about 6 inches yet the mule seek out and can prosper all winter on such sparse grass. I could see dirt, top soil the grass is sparse but loaded with minerals and protein thur the roof. Not talking about alfalfa but plain ol native northern grass of Montana is rich compared to the south,
I am going to take a guess and assume the flowers of North are rich in nectar/pollen compared to the south. Just a hunch, no facts other than my eyes on sparse buffalo grass and prospering wildlife.
Did you folks see the pic HP posted of the clover field.....as far as the eye could see. Ian post infinite cannoli fields also. 🇨🇦 is so rich in flowers.
HP: Send your maple syrup.
Seeb, that a beautiful flowered area, complete with an adorable kitty.
Health to the bees.
