Pollinators Love Me
"The pedigree of honey does not concern the bee; A clover, any time, to him is aristocracy."
Emily Dickinson
When weeding in my flower garden, I used to see white clover flowers as weeds. However, white clovers are a great source of nectar and pollen for honey bees. The plant flowers from May to September, and its long blooming period attracts bees and other pollinators. White clover is also high in nectar sugar, so bees often visit it before other nectar sources.
