The goals of our research were to identify the melliferous base of Vurpăr locality (Sibiu County), emphazing the important aspects, such as: the diversity of the melliferous species, the heating index of blooming (T0 C), the average data of starting of blooming, the honey production (kg/ha), the apical balance. The applied research methods were as follows: observation in the field, the method of direct gathering of different plant species and their identification in the lab. As a result of our researches there was established the taxonomic structure of melliferous flora in the researched area, in this respect being identified 38 taxonomic groups belonging to herbs, bushes or trees, Besides these species of melliferous plants there were identified other 5 tree species without flowers (manna honey) in the area. As a conclusion there can be asserted that the territory of Vurpăr locality holds a valuable malliferous potential. The apiarists dealing with putting into value this territory need to know exactly this potential and also the weather conditions of the area.
