Index of Subjects Sorry - I should have been more specific with my question. I know that bees love white clover and am concerned about whether the common cultivars now in grass seed etc. have been genetically manipulated to produce pesticides. thanks, Mary ----Original Message Follows---- From: Paul MacDonald <paulrita2001@yahoo.com> Reply-To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca Subject: Re: [NatureNS] bees and industrial white clover Date: Sun, 24 Jun 2007 08:13:32 -0700 (PDT) Hi Mary and All Re white Clover, the May 2000 issue of Bee Tidings has this to say. "White clover is an important honey plant. White clover honey is considered the best quality honey. It is the standard to which other honeys are compared. In many areas it is the principle source of nectar for the production of surplus honey." With the present biofuel developments going on white clover can be expected to become one of the crops of the future. It has a lot going for it even if the moderator of this group says its not a suitable topic for this form! If something is going to change nature in NS in the near future - this is it! Have a nice summer Paul --- Mary Macaulay <marymacaulay@hotmail.com> wrote: > Just wondering if the white clover mixed into many > grass seed mixes is safe > for bees? > Mary > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ Take the Internet to Go: Yahoo!Go puts the Internet in your pocket: mail, news, photos & more. http://mobile.yahoo.com/go?refer=1GNXIC _________________________________________________________________ See Fireworks On Live Image Search http://search.live.com/images/results.aspx?q=Fireworks&mkt=en-ca&FORM=SERNEP
