The Rose Hive concept is along the same lines as using only the one sized ‘box’. However, the box is deeper than the National super and shallower than the Brood box – so might alleviate some concerns about ‘super’ weight. Problem is one has to move over to Rose dimension frames etc., and likely not appealing to those who have already invested in other hardware. We are going to utilise one Rose Hive in the coming season (We use national) to see if the expressed extra honey yield etc is a reality.
