Mustard
Honeybees forage on black mustard for its plentiful nectar and pollen, which supports brood rearing and honey production during the growing season. Peak bloom typically spans late spring to midsummer, lasting 1-2 months with continuous flowering up the stems. The tall, fast-growing habit requires ample space and may necessitate management to curb self-seeding.
