Cutleaf Toothwort
Cardamine concatenata
Honeybees forage on cutleaf toothwort for nectar and pollen in early spring, offering a vital early-season resource as colonies expand. Peak bloom aligns with April to May, coinciding with tree leaf-out in woodlands. It thrives in shaded, moist soils and poses no invasive risks, though it may be browsed by deer.
