Are honey bees able to obtain nectar from grape flowers?
• Honeybees can get nectar from grape flowers but only when there is nothing else around and they are really desperate. Everyone thinks I raise bees to pollinate the grapes, but not so. I rarely see bees in the vineyard when the grapes are in full bloom, only one time when the weather changed the time of the bloom in respect to the bloom time of the wildflowers did I see honeybees in the vineyard.
