Hi Bob It's that 'divided by a common language' thing again. Scrummy = scrumptious = 'extremely pleasing to the sense of taste' While we're on the topic of linguistic differences, we use 'heartsease' for a pansy or violet (Viola sp.), a plant with no interest for bees. I believe that your 'Smartweed' is our 'Water pepper' or 'Persicaria', Polygonum hydropiper. I don't think that we get honey from it, but we do get a dark honey from Japanese Knotweed, a large and invasive relative. all the best Gavin ****************************************************** * Full guidelines for BEE-L posting are at: * * http://www.honeybeeworld.com/bee-l/guidelines.htm * ******************************************************
