This is a very unique recipe and quite easy. My kids had fun picking the clover and watching when it was poured into jars. I used the petals of just one wild rose because that's all I could find and was not about to run to a flower shop. This is real honey! Thank you Aroostook and Dot. We will be making this every year.
