It depends on the type of tree but when honey bees (Apis Mellifera) are living in the wild, they will often build their nest inside a hollow in a tree which provides them with protection from the weather and some protection from predators. Some species of tree will have an abundance of nectar for the bees to eat and store for the winter and others will have lots of pollen which the bee uses to feed its larvae. The bee can also use the resin from the tree to make a substance called propolis which it can use to fill any gaps in its nest.

Plants provide bees with nectar, or pollen, or both. Some buds, especially of trees, provide a resinous substance called propolis which bees use to seal gaps in their hive.
