Joe-Pye Weed
Honeybees visit Joe-Pye Weed primarily for its abundant nectar and available pollen, making it a valuable late-season forage source. Blooms peak in August within moist meadows and woodland edges, providing extended flowering into early fall. Tall stems often need staking to support heavy flower heads, and plants prefer consistently moist soils though they adapt to average garden conditions.
