[QUOTE="solo, post: 7915704, member: 4327"] My bee keeper in the1980’s/90’s used to specifically bring his hives here for the avenue of mature lime trees, planted back in the 1800’s. At that time oilseed rape was not grown in this area as it contaminates the pure lime honey. These trees do shed quite a few smaller branches over the year, which need picking before the combine. They are very attractive trees especially when just coming into leaf. Not heard of limes affecting bees before today. [/QUOTE]
