How the Delaware year breaks down

Counted, not claimed

Something in the Delaware list is in bloom from March through September, and June is the peak — 11 of the 24 species are flowering then.

11 of them are caterpillar host plants and 4 support specialist bees — the ones that do the most work in Delaware yards.

Across the twelve Delaware month pages the reference side draws on 6 wildflowers, 6 trees, 6 butterflies and 7 things coming into season locally.

Before you buy

Who this is for

Made for

  • Someone who wants the whole Delaware year and somewhere to record it
  • Anyone buying the Delaware Nature Year who would have come back for the journal anyway
  • Households where more than one person in Delaware goes outside

Not for

  • Anyone who only wants to read Delaware month by month — the free Delaware pages already do that
  • Anyone who does not print; most of what is here is made for paper

Everything here describes typical timing across Delaware, drawn from long-run records — weather, elevation and how close you are to water all move the real dates around. So the Delaware pages say "usually early May" and never "May 4th", which is not hedging but the most the data can honestly carry.

Questions

Before you decide

What exactly is in the Delaware set?

Delaware Nature Year 2027 and The Delaware Nature Journal — every file each of them contains.

What if I already own one of these Delaware editions?

Then buy the others on their own — the Delaware set only saves money if all of it is new to you, and we would rather say so than take $42.00 for a file you already have.

Is this cheaper than buying the Delaware editions one at a time?

Yes — $42.00 rather than $48.00, a saving of $6.00. There is no cart here, so buying them apart also means checking out 2 separate times.

Do the Delaware files arrive together?

They arrive as one download list on one page — 12 files in all for Delaware, each downloadable on its own, and the link re-opens for 72 hours.

How accurate is the timing for Delaware?

It describes typical timing across Delaware drawn from long-run records, and because weather, elevation and habitat move real Delaware dates around it says "usually early May" rather than "May 4th".

Is it worth paying when the Delaware pages here are free?

The free Delaware pages are the month you are in; these are the Delaware editions around them — planned before the year arrives, and printable, so you are not holding a screen in the garden.

Will it work for my part of Delaware, or just the big cities?

It is written at state resolution — Delaware as a whole, with regional notes where Delaware genuinely differs end to end, and nothing behind it is recorded finely enough to honestly promise more than that.

What format is the Delaware edition, and can I print it?

A PDF laid out for both Letter and A4, one page per sheet — printing it is the point, since the Delaware pages are made to be carried outside.

What if the Delaware set is not what I expected?

Email hello@birchcompass.com within 30 days for a full refund on the Delaware edition, and keep the files either way — asking for them back would be theatre.

Everything in this set is also sold on its own — Delaware Nature Year 2027 and The Delaware Nature Journal — and the free Delaware pages cover this month either way.
