You will find that many of the early flowers that bees are attracted too are wild flowers and of course early flowering fruit trees. Check with someone in your area that is knowledgeable about which wildflowers bloom early. Many beekeepers feed sugar syrup in early spring to help build up their colonies so that there will be more bees when the main flower bloom periods occur (more bees = more honey & pollination.)

Hello all
I am planing to get a bee swarm soon and am designing a plant list to cover all times of year.
I am particularly interested in early flowering plants, if any of you could give any sugestions.
thanks so much
Ross
