above 55F and sunny should do the trick. Its amazing how warm a sunny spot can get. I know here it's 45F in the shade but in the sun its quite comfy.

there are many other pollinators though (wasps, other types of bees (not honeybee))

if you have fruit trees you may want to consider getting some mason bees. Not sure where to get them, there are a few suppliers out there. They're solitary bees and do not need a hive, they're fruit pollinators

no worries. I'm sure the pollinators are hard at work for you :)

thinking warm sunny thoughts for you!

Lady, I wish you lived closer to me--you could get all the apples you wanted from my trees!
Thanks a bunch.
:D
