The wood grain is beautiful, and I love the shape of this bee house. The bee larvae are resting in nesting material at the back of the paper columns, and should be waking up soon. I love seeing these small bees on all of our trees and flowers. They will do an excellent job of pollinating everything within a half-mile radius of our yard.

New Home for Our Mason Orchard Bees
Look at this beautiful carved wood bee 'condo' from Molbak's! Our old one was not working well enough to protect the delicate larvae, so this year we found this larger model, and stacked up the long columns for the bees to lay their eggs in after they pollinate the trees and flowers this Spring.
