[Pollinator] Floral calendars for beekeepers and natural historians interested in pollinators/pollination

[Tim Miklasiewicz]

Hi Peter,

     Thanks for sending the floral calendars.  You might want to check 
the bloom period listed for lead plant (/Amorpha canescens/).  Both 
floral calendars list it as starting in early spring.  In Ohio, it 
starts to bloom during June and can repeat during July-August.  The 
www.wildflower.org database and USDA PLANTS database plantguide state 
that lead plant blooms in June-July.

Best wishes,

Tim
