I was just wondering if these are good honeybee trees. I've planted some fruit trees for the bees and was thinking of planting some of these and maybe some black locusts. I have one at the edge of our property and It always blooms like mad around mid summer. I've heard they were good trees for the honeybee somewhere, but I can't remember where. The only think I don't like about both the mimosa and black locust is given the chance they'll both spread like crazy and are hard to kill,but I figure what the heck the mower can keep them in check. Here's a link to a picture.
