Honeybees and Sunflowers

This is a great time of year to visit our community gardens at Dallas Retirement Village.  This year in particular we seem to have an outstanding collection of sunflowers. And the honeybees are now busy doing their thing of pollinating the flowers while collecting their nectar. Next will come the flocks of American Goldfinches to feed on the sunflower seeds.

    Sunflowers are also rich source of pollen for the bees. They need pollen to build the hive as well as nectar to feed it.
