Description

This webinar talks about the importance of trees for all pollinators such as Bees, on how it affects their population and honey production. The interaction of bees and trees is discussed. Honeybee population buildup depends upon trees. Trees provide the earliest and most abundant pollen and nectar resources. With the well known dwindling bee population and the critical role they play in our ecosystems, understanding the role that trees play will help landscape architects to be aware and to help design with this species in mind.
