# Bloom and fruit calendar

> A month-by-month grid of when each native tree and shrub we grow flowers and fruits, filtered to your site, with the gaps a planting leaves and what fills them.

Blue Whale Trees, a native tree nursery in the United States. Web version: https://bluewhaletrees.com/tools/calendar/

The calendar shows, month by month, when each of the 364 trees and shrubs we grow is in flower and when its fruit, nuts or acorns ripen. The months come from each one's own page, or the Woody Plant Seed Manual where a page gives none. Narrow the grid to the trees and shrubs that suit your zone, sun and soil, then pick the ones you are planting. The calendar marks the months your planting leaves with nothing in flower or fruit, and names the trees that suit the site and would fill them. Bees want flowers from March to November and birds want fruit from June to March. A planting can give both.

The gap finder needs JavaScript too. It marks the months a planting leaves with nothing in flower, from March to November, or in fruit, from June to March. It names the trees and shrubs that suit the site and would fill them.

## The whole catalog, month by month

B marks the months in flower and F the months of fruit, nuts or acorns. The 18 conifers have no flowers, so P marks the months their cones shed pollen. 344 of the 364 trees and shrubs have fruit months on record. The other 20 say "fruit months not recorded" until a source gives them. Pick trees, a month or a site to narrow it.

F covers the months the fruit ripens and falls, and the months it hangs on where birds or mammals still eat it. Months are as the plant pages give them, with the bees article's or the Woody Plant Seed Manual's where a page gives none. Many span a tree's range from south to north, and a Georgia spring runs weeks ahead of a Maine one.

## Reading the calendar

Each tree's months come from its own page, with the bees article's bloom calendar or the Woody Plant Seed Manual's flowering and fruiting dates where a page gives none. A tree's flowers matter to bees for a week or two; its fruit can matter to birds for a season, since the fruits marked as hanging on, winterberry's and the hawthorn's among them, feed birds in the winter gaps that count most. A dry pod, capsule or winged seed is marked only while it ripens, unless its page says birds or mammals eat it later. A conifer has no flowers, and its pollen months are marked P and left out of the flowers counted for bees.

A planting is checked for the months from March to November with nothing of it in flower and the months from June to March with nothing in fruit. Those are the months bees want flowers and birds want fruit. The trees and shrubs offered for a gap suit the site set above, and those that cover the most bare months come first, six at most. A planting that flowers from March to November and fruits from June to the following spring is the aim, and the gap finder above says what yours is missing.

The months do not change with the zone you set. Alabama Extension's page on [Hopkins' bioclimatic law](https://www.aces.edu/blog/topics/forestry/estimating-alabama-bloom-times-using-hopkins-bioclimatic-law/) gives the rule of thumb. "Other things being equal, this variation is at the rate of four days for each degree of latitude, five degrees of longitude, and 400 feet of altitude." Spring comes later the farther north and the higher up you are, so a cold zone sees spring flowers late in each span.

The bees article has the [bloom calendar in words](https://bluewhaletrees.com/articles/native-trees-for-bees/index.html.md), with what each flower gives; [the birds article](https://bluewhaletrees.com/articles/native-trees-for-birds/index.html.md) has the fruit. The bundles that were built for this are [Honey Tree Trio](https://bluewhaletrees.com/bundles/honey-trio/index.html.md), [Native Edible Orchard](https://bluewhaletrees.com/bundles/edible-orchard/index.html.md) and [Bird & Berry Hedgerow](https://bluewhaletrees.com/bundles/bird-hedgerow/index.html.md).
