GOLDEN CLEOME 
(Cleome lutea) 


Our annual Golden Cleome or Yellow Spider Flower. 
Golden Cleome or Yellow Spider Flower makes a large 
erowing ornamental in one season growth. Though native 
to a dry region (the southwest) it will also thrive in more 
humid climates, and, if given cultivation and plenty of 
room, reach a height of six or seven feet and bloom from 
July until frost, with a constantly increasing number of 
flower clusters. It is ideal for background. A single plant 
with plenty of room may resemble a young tree with much 
yellow bloom all late summer and fall. The plant is annual 
and self-sows freely. One of the finest of honey plants, 
very attractive to bees and other insects.

The fiddle neck phacelia (Phacelia tenacetifolia) is an

fornia but has been widely cultivated in European gardens 
as a honey plant, also grown to some extent for forage. It 
reaches a height of about two feet, with blueish or pink 
flowers. A famous bee plant.
