  1. Melicope ternata

  2. how toxic is this plant for the bees and or humans

  3. I don't believe it is toxic - the sap and exudate from the foliage was/is still used as a scent by Maori. Its in the Rutaceae - which as a rule aren't toxic to people. I have not heard of any poisonings involving it. I can't comment on bee's interactions with it though. Out of curiosity why do you ask?
