The original hive was removed from a 60 year old Silver Maple tree here in Denver Colorado. The owner of the tree said the bee's had lived in the tree for 30 years after the tree was stuck by lightening. These bees have been seen working in temperatures in the high 30's. They are very frugal with their honey stores. They produce white comb and a high amount of propolis. These bees are gentle but do seem to be slightly more defensive of their hive then non survivor stock. The Queen will be dark brown to black in color and will come marked for easy identification.
