 We saw some last minute spraying going on,but I think those who were going
to spray had already done so.No problem as long as the little white flowers
under the trees arent blooming or have been mowed.Dont know what they are
but the bees will work them.

The trees in both the north and south surprisingly seem to bloom fairly
close together from what I hear.Never took bees further south so dont
really know.
