Walter's Viburnum
Honeybees primarily visit Walter's viburnum for its pollen in early spring, serving as an important early-season forage source, though nectar rewards are limited due to shallow flower tubes. Peak bloom typically spans March to April, providing consistent support for foraging colonies. This native shrub thrives in moist to wet soils and can be managed by pruning to prevent thicket formation, with no known invasiveness issues.
