Pointleaf Manzanita

Honeybees visit pointleaf manzanita for nectar and pollen during its late winter to early spring bloom, serving as a key early-season forage source in arid regions. They often nectar-rob by perforating urn-shaped flowers, which may limit effective pollination. This evergreen shrub thrives in well-drained, dry soils and is drought-tolerant once established.
