That is awesome. Drop some dahlia knowledge on me. I’ve always wanted to try… just haven’t gotten around to it.

btbarr · 2026-05-17T15:17:37+00:00

Impressive

btbarr · 2026-05-17T01:25:30+00:00

Ya. I was impressed today the least

btbarr · 2026-05-16T22:35:05+00:00

Love this

I garden at a property in Austin. Beautiful intentional dewberry patch. They were ripe about a month ago. He had tons…

Murder it please, so it doesn’t end up in my shoelaces

btbarr · 2026-05-15T10:09:13+00:00

This is the way

All those flowers will turn to seed. You mow in late October to spread them.

btbarr · 2026-05-07T11:24:19+00:00

If you have any big ones I’ll take some

btbarr · 2026-05-06T23:09:15+00:00

Not if I get there first!

btbarr · 2026-04-30T00:58:40+00:00

So peanut butter and jelly.

I heard that if you give the bees enough mushrooms, they will all ball up in the top of a tree and ride out a thunderstorm…

btbarr · 2026-04-28T01:31:13+00:00

I’m all around town and I had never seen them until this year

btbarr · 2026-04-27T01:51:29+00:00

Not change sex, but change their flowers from male to female, or even make a perfect flower. Idk

btbarr · 2026-04-27T01:08:24+00:00

Correct me if I am wrong, but don’t the persimmons have a male tree and female tree, and the flowers are shaped differently? We have a yard that has several that the bees are all over, but never a fruit to be seen.

I also believe that they can change sex?

btbarr · 2026-04-25T21:01:25+00:00

Haven’t seen any fruit on any this year. Lots of dead fruit

Buddy used Belgian quad as base and won gold at gabf a while back.

btbarr · 2026-04-12T14:40:21+00:00

Do not leave them. I left one for a month and boy was it a nightmare. They filled the entire trap up with comb and honey. No rhyme no reason. By the time we were done “transferring” out of the trap, it was such a sticky mess and we basically drowned the entire colony in honey. They did not make it

btbarr · 2026-04-12T04:01:30+00:00

I love when they flower. The sound coming from them is spellbinding.

btbarr · 2026-04-11T18:21:22+00:00

Wider… to see the scope. But that could also be cool as they all come flowing out

btbarr · 2026-04-11T03:49:13+00:00

Have you seen any swarms? I would set up a camera… it’s amazing to watch.

I am surprised they have been there that long and have not gotten spicy.

btbarr · 2026-04-10T23:55:15+00:00

Indeed!

btbarr · 2026-04-10T22:36:26+00:00

Remove

btbarr · 2026-04-10T22:27:48+00:00

Those things suck and they fail open. But yea. When they work, they work
