Notes
'Rocky Mountain Bee Plant' (Cleomella serrulata 'Rocky Mountain Bee Plant') is an annual for borders, pollinator gardens, and low maintenance beds. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. It is drought tolerant, so you can skip frequent watering once it settles in. Bees, hummingbirds, and birds visit the flowers. It grows 24 to 59 inches tall and spreads 12 to 24 inches.
Pairs well with Diablo cosmos, Cerise Queen yarrow, and Red fescue.
