Fall Flowers signal summer's end
These beautiful flowers signal the end of the bloom season. My hives are full of honey, pollen and propolis harvested by the bees throughout the season. Propolis is also called, bee glue. It is a sticky plant resin that is collected by bees and mixed with salvia to use to cleanse and polish surfaces and this time of year to seal cracks in the hive to prevent rain and cold wind from entering !
