Try Eucalypts: Hundreds of species, many of them extremele robust, many
ornamental, can handle the heat, many types produce an abundance of nectar and or
heavy (insect pollination) pollen, small hard fruit, evergreen, a little leaf
litter debris. Our main honeyflow in the Western Cape is from Eucalyptus
caldocalyx - the (Cape) Sugar Gum. Let's hear it from the Ozzies?
