Hibiscus

Honeybees visit Hibiscus rosa-sinensis flowers for abundant pollen and moderate nectar supplies, drawn by the large, open blooms with prominent stamens. Peak blooming occurs during summer months in subtropical and temperate climates, providing consistent forage over several months. As an evergreen shrub, it prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil; frost sensitivity may necessitate protection or indoor overwintering in marginal areas.
