It seems early to be celebrating pollinators in June, since there are limited flowers blooming at this time, but maybe it is a way to welcome them back? Daisies, a few lilies, ajuga, creeping charlie, columbine, apple blossoms, bleeding heart, and dandelions have offered their nectar and pollen, and lupines have bloomed as welll. Check the pollen on this bumble bee’s saddlebags! (The “saddlebags” are officially called “corbicula” and are pollen storage sacs.) Have you seen any pollinators yet on the MRG?
