It’s especially attractive to bees as well as other pollinators including the endangered Mission Blue butterfly and up to 11 other butterflies. The flowers, which resemble a scorpion’s tail, provide pollen and nectar for insects during a long blooming period from spring into summer.
Phacelia grows up to a 18 inches tall; it prefers sun but will tolerate shade. It’s easy to grow and will reseed and spread easily.
