Not fruit. Not sugar. Just water, rocks & minerals—the right way to help bees 🐝💧
A simple act can become a lifeline—clean water with safe landing spots helps thirsty bees survive and thrive.
Tiny wings carry the weight of our ecosystem—every drop you offer matters.
In a world full of noise, even a quiet bowl of water can save lives.
Care for bees today, and tomorrow will bloom brighter 🌼

With plummeting temps in the forecast, we’ve heard some chatter about “exploding trees.” However, it’s not as explosive as it sounds. 🤯

Sudden cold snaps rarely cause trees to explode. What’s more common is frost cracking—when sunny winter days warm the bark, then rapid cooling causes it to shrink and tighten faster than the inner wood, creating a vertical crack. Trees with existing damage and those with thin bark are more prone to frost cracks.

Trees are resilient and usually heal well from this cracking. 💪 The cracks are permanent, but often a tree will seal the edges of the crack, leaving a thin vertical line in the bark.

🌳 Our plant experts do not recommend wrapping tree trunks to prevent frost cracks. Instead, help trees stay healthy enough to recover from frost cracks or other damage by watering them during the growing season and maintaining a layer of mulch over their roots.
