Just got a catalog from Old World Honey in Montana, USA.
They mention that Melilotus (sweet clover) is a main source
of their honey.  (Have great beeswax handlotion, too, by the pound!!)
 
How does all this Melilotus come to be?  Is it planted, or just feral?
If it's planted, do people plant it for the honey, or for some other
reason?  How much of it is out there?  (Makes me nervous, but I have
to know!)
 
Thanks!
