I'm looking to develop a stand of trees or shrubs that can help the bees through the summer months. It is my understanding that after sourwood blooms here that there is hardly any major honey flows untill fall. I plan on planting this stand within the next three years, and would like to start early with propogation to save myself money. I understand that i'll need a significant number of plants and thats why i'm starting early.
I've heard some good reports about a plant known as Golden Rain Tree. I'm not sure where it's bloom time fits in with the local honey flows. There is no point in duplicating an already effective honey flow.
Do any of you know of good trees or shrubs that would help my bees get through the summer a little easier?
