Title: desert prairie sunflower
Post by: Johnny on September 03, 2016, 11:47:29 am

Does the desert prairie sunflower produce nectar or pollen that the bees can use?
Here in West Texas we have an abundance of them everywhere.
We had a dry summer but alot of prairie sunflowers but my bees were using up their stored
honey instead of making more honey.

Do you have a technical name for the flower?
