the one who plants trees knowing that he will never sit in their shade has at least started to understand the meaning of life…. Love that saying. I have horse chestnut, sweet chestnut, small leaf lime, some English and Holme oaks to plant out. The cuttings I did last year seem to be going well… catalpa, willow and Judas. The one my bees love but I don’t have any of my own as yet is eucryphia.

Really enjoyed that i love gardening, wish i had your knowledge, given me a few ideas of what trees to get. That wisteria is a show stopper, magnificent. I have a pathetic white one, but the smell hits you as you walk down the path. Garden videos always welcome

Thanks Richard. Fantastic video. Your plant knowledge of what is flowering so interesting and useful. Plus knowing their scientific names. impressive! I’m in Surrey (farnham) what’s flowering with you in Brittany is almost the same maybe slightly advanced as our area (our hawthorn just starting to pop)All the best for the season, holding thumbs for the weather 🙏👍

Just had snow after 2 rounds of successfully mated queens . The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away. Farming is a rollercoaster. Don't get too excited Richard, it's coming your way and its about to get worse.

Richard, you have such an array of beautiful flowering plants. Seem a bit of a waste to not have more hives close to your garden but bees to close to your honey house isn't good either. Have fun with the bees.

Like to know more about how you treat for varroa "caging and oxalic acid " i think. How many hives do you run? Do you keep full time help? Thanks.

Are you rearing queens, or you don't have time? One other hand next 10 days seems "winter" same in N Europe and France. But it could be nice get ready for good weather.

Hi, yes I will be rearing a lot of queens this year but it’s soo cold right now that it would be crazy to start. Often in a good year I don’t start until mid May. Hoping the weather gets warmer and more settled soon.

its looking like alot of the US is about 3 weeks ahead of normal, and i'm seeing the same thing in my part of NY, ive actually made up 11 nucs since last week. i dont usually think about making splits until May, but i've been opening up hives that look more like they are a mid june population and brood, not mid april! were just getting started, but its going to be a crazy year looks like. ive still got loads of boxes i still need to paint too
