Just looked through the archives and found not definitive answer concerning either pollen or nectar from peanuts.   The field right in front of my hives is a peanut field.  Although I've checked occasionally in peanut fields in the past, I have not observed any pollinators of any type working the peanuts blossoms, including honey bees.  Do anyone out there have any knowledge of how honey bees work T don't work peanuts blossoms?

BTW, once the taste is acquired, boiled peanuts are GREAT!
