This study has been carried out in order to make the inventory on honeybee plants of Bukavu and its surroundings. Results showed that bees usually visit 147 species of plants. Bees collect nectar on 71 % of these plants. Blue, violet, yellow, red and pink flower colours seem to be the best for bees attracting.
