Bees Friend (Bienen-Freund)

Product Information
Phacelia tanacetifolia
Ok.  Yeah, yeah I know.  Your Anise Hyssop attracts alot of bees. and your Borage too. But honestly, you ain't seen nothing until you plant a swath of this in your garden.  Put in a clump of it and if there is a bee within 2 miles of your garden it will come, anf if there's lots of bees living nearby....you will HEAR the the patch 50' before you get there.  It's ridiculous really.  We actually started to worry that the other crops wouldn't get pollinated beacause the bees were spending all their time in the Phacelia.  It's a lovely plant to boot, with lacey fern like leaves and a fiddle head of buds that unfurl with a succession of delicate lavender blooms.  Attracts aphid-hungry syrphid flys as well.  High quality pollen and nectar.  Flowers over a ong period of time.  Delightful.  Wonderful.  Love it.
75-80 days.
Packet size: 100 seeds
