It's not a growth. The orange lumps are pollen stored in what's called a pollen basket. A pollen basket is an indentation in a bee's back legs

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.
