White, Sweet white and yellow, red, crimson and Alsike clovers are the best types for honey bees [subgenera Micrapis, Megapis, Apis].

Sweet white and yellow [Melilotus alba, M. officinalis] are critical because of their bloom times from May through August.

Are honeybees the same as bees?
No. Some bumble bees are solitary but even the largest social bumble bee colonies are quite small with up to a couple of hundred members -- compared to a honey bee colony at 20,000 to 60,000 members. Also, bumble bees only store enough honey for their immediate needs because over the winter the new queens hibernate and the rest of the colony dies. With honey bees they have to build up a large stock of honey for food when they can't forage in the winter because they do not hibernate and a large part of the colony will survive through the winter.

Is there a difference between Clover Honey and Bee Honey?
Honey is honey for the most part. Clover Honey is honey that is created by bee hives that are predominantly surrounded by clover flowers. The flowers used have some affect on the flavor, for instance, bee hives in orange groves will have a subtle hint of orange in their taste. According to the National Honey Board, to be identified as Clover Honey, at least 50% of the flowers from which pollen is collected must be that type of flower. Bee Honey probably refers to the fact that there isn't a specific single type of flower that can be identified in the honey.
