Clough Pecan Nursery 3417 Hwy. 84 West Blackshear, GA 31516 912-449-4585 912-288-4895 or 1947 Contact: Andy Clough This grower of Excel pecan and patent holder. As all nursery they sell after crop ends the digging shipping starts around Christmas I don't no if do small shipping but one contact number should yield answer. The Excel are hard hulls nuts maybe the hardest to shell and keep in shell a long time like year in paper sack in side home nuts are large medium size weight shell heavy. I've got 9 young plants planted January 2012. For other Nursery Bass Pecan my favorite to buy from because there climate best grow off young plants they have long late growth each year pecan have largest primary bud so new growth after transplant grow 4 feet in first 45 days over years my purchase total been 1120 plants from Bass they in are near Lumberton Miss. I've used Patten seed company for about 4 to 5 hundred pecan trees good roots from this nursery but primary buds small and tree go into stunt 1 to 2 years but come out do find.

I read an article that debunked the cell phone/cell tower theory; I'll look for the link. What I am doing this year is planting lots of thyme all over the veggie garden, even with the tomatoes, cukes, etc. Honeybees love thyme. I think that the overuse of lawn chemicals has killed off a lot of bees. I don't use chemicals to kill weeds but one day I went out to dig up some dandelions and there were honeybees on it! I left the dandelions alone. I did some research and learned that honeybees and dendelions emerge at about the same time. If we kill off an early food source for the bees, that isn't helping them. We are not only leaving the dandelions, and buttercups, alone, but we've now named our place Dandelion Farm! Julie Here is a link that might be useful: Garden Nerds

I don't think that is going to work for you. In the growing season in Texas, you will likely have the greenhouse opened up for heat control. Native pollinators and honey bees will make their way in and out if it is sufficiently open. In the winter, bees will not successfully work inside a greenhouse.

I don't know what will grow in Florida, but here, the bees love catmint! They also like lavender, spearmint, bee balm (monarda), salvia, dandelions, purple hyacinths, cosmos, apple and plum trees, coneflowers, butterfly bushes (these seem to make yellow jackets happy/less cranky) and sunflowers. If you go to the nursery/plant stores in the morning (when it's not so busy) you may see some of the bees hovering around their favorite flowers :)
