wildflower honey

Uncultivated blossom sweetener

Wildflower honey is honey produced by bees that gather nectar from a variety of uncultivated flowering plants rather than a single crop.

The flavor and color vary by region and season, depending on which wildflowers are blooming: This wildflower honey has hints of clover and goldenrod.

It contrasts with monofloral honeys like orange blossom or buckwheat, which come predominantly from one plant source.
