Wonderful topic and fantastic content in this video about both the tree ( not much about the wood itself for woodworking), but also the historical use for bee keeping ( which I find soo interesting). Thank you for this video contribution!

Thanks Johnny, I live on a river swamp border, and Tupelo is everywhere. I’m looking forward to seeing the honey out of it. Your videos have answered a pile of questions for me. Be blessed and prosper brother.

good stuff. I grew up in the Louisiana delta right next to the Mississippi River. I noticed the range of this tree skipped over it. Now I live right on the Western edge of its range. I personally can't say I have ever seen it. Sweet Gum is everywhere but, other than the bark, there seems little similarities between the two.

On the delta I'm guessing you had some Nyssa aquatica?! We have a few sweet gums here in lower spots. Very interesting and beautiful tree. Monecious and primarily wind pollinated. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

Thanks Jonny, I really enjoy these videos about forage sources. I like seeing what's different in other areas. I'm a third year bee keeper on east central Missouri. We don't seem to have major nectar sources that bring in loads of honey. It seems we have a variety that I'm still discovering. In the last few days the bees have been going to Carolina buckthorn. Do you have it in your area? Do the bees forage on it?

I've heard it said many times, "beekeeping is local". So true especially with nectar sources. Buckthorn is common in Tennessee but is a minor source for us. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! I hope your supers fill up and your season is awesome!!!
