There have bee 3 recent queries regarding different types of pollen (corn,
poppy and hazelnut) that may or may not be collected by honeybees.  The
quickest online reference for pollination is
_Insect_Pollination_Of_Cultivated_Crop_Plants
by S.E. McGregor, USDA (Originally published 1976), hosted by A.I. Root (who
also brings you "Bee Culture") at:
http://bee.airoot.com/beeculture/book/index.html

I find none of the three listed.  Can I assume if they didn't make
McGregor's book the plants aren't of interest to honeybees or should I
assume the plants weren't of interest to McGregor?

Aaron Morris - I think, therefore I bee!
