Abstract: | During two years the preferences shown by bees for five cultivars of white clover (S100, S184, Sabeda, Kent Wild and New Zealand Huia) were tested. Honeybees and bumblebees visited all the cultivars, but S100, the cultivar commonly planted on motorway verges, was one of the most attractive to them. |
