Bloodroot

Honeybees visit bloodroot primarily for pollen, as the flowers produce no nectar, offering an early-season resource when few other options are available. Peak bloom occurs in March to April in its native range, with short-lived flowers that close at night or in cloudy weather. This woodland perennial spreads slowly via rhizomes and requires moist, shaded conditions; it's not invasive but may need protection from deer browsing in some areas.
