Malcolm,

I grow St. Johns Wort and it has a yellow flower 3-4 inches across. I got
out my "Honey Plants of North America" and it reads that --there are 31
species of hypericum and they are necterless. They do produce pollen and
bees gather this pollen in the morning. It looks like "hypericum honey"
is just a scam.

Take Care

Greg
