White Sweetclover
White sweetclover is a biennial that offers substantial nectar and pollen to honeybees, serving as a major honey-flow source during its mid-summer bloom peak in July and August. It thrives in disturbed areas but can become invasive in some regions, requiring control to avoid outcompeting natives. Bees forage heavily on its white flowers from roadsides and fields.
