Russian Olives are not native to the United States.  They interfere in natures balance with their fast growing, water demanding presence.  Lovely and fragrant, plant these olives in contained places and away from wooded areas.

Honey bees swarm under wisteria

Haiku: Rescue the swarm

Seeking their shelter

Keep safe, rescue busy bees

Need tiny workers

Regardless of where you live, seek a live bee removal to save the honey bees should they swarm near your home or surroundings.

Do your part…plant bee friendly flowers, don’t use pesticides and don’t ever exterminate precious honey bees.
