Operation Pollinator has really begun top take off. Our new seedlings are getting established... the warm temperature is ideal for growth. |

This photograph was taken June 6th demonstrating the plants beginning to flower. |

Several different colors are starting to pop from the plants including whites, purples and yellow. |

A word about Operation Pollinator from the Syngenta Company:
Bumblebees play a crucial role
as one of natures' pollinators, but they are in serious decline and need our
help now. Reversing the plight of the bumblebee and other pollinating insects
will help to prove that golf courses can be managed in harmony with the
environment and provide valuable wildlife habitats.
Golf courses can provide
essential sanctuaries for bumblebees and other beneficial insect
species. Environmental enhancement of
relatively undisturbed out of play areas can provide the perfect location for
immensely valuable ecological habitats.
