Rapeseed is swede origin and turnip rape is big turnip origin.
This year I learned that there is a huge difference with nectar production of some rapeseeds and turnip rapes.
Spring turnip rape is bush like. And its bud are above of flowers.
In rapeseed buds are inside flower ball. Sometimes flowers are so small that no bugs visit on them.
Its flower size is 1/5 that of turnip rape.
Of course, there are hige varietes in oilseed rapes.
