DailyPostcard: Cherry blossoms have begun blooming for spring and the bees are busy as seen April 15 at a residence in White Rock. Cherries require bees to move pollen within and between flowers to achieve pollination. Cherry pollination is an all-or-nothing proposition – the more flowers pollinated, the more cherries will develop on the tree. Typically, honey bees visit flowers in the morning.
