But what does "organic" mean? Why would "organic flowers" (whatever that precisely means) be impossible? Are all flowers and meadows in the UK sprayed??
I was of the opinion that it is wise to start with residue-free wax and then recycle one's own (closed circuit?). In the city, at least, the chances then (according to those in DE who have tested) of contamination are minimal.
didn't say organic flowers would be impossible but guaranteeing that your bees only visit such organic flowers would be! (unless you own a big enough organic farm and place your bees in the middle!)
