Hi all
> and here we say HOWDY!


Still hoping to hear from folks regarding major honey plants. Most lists I have seen are way too long and include plants that may produce some honey but can't really be regarded as major. 
ISTSERV(R) list management software. 

>the topic has come up several times in the past couple of weeks as question by new beekeepers about the kinds of plants that may produce 'poisonous' (lethal or sublethal) nectar and thereby adversely impact the health of a hive.  Does anyone know of a definitive list of these? Basically since a lot of these new beekeepers have gardens they are looking for advice as to what NOT to plant.
