Test Rocky Mountain Bee Plant (Cleome serrulata) Check out our other listings! Rocky Mountain Bee Plant is an annual wildflower native to North America where it can often be found growing in prairies, open woodlands, and disturbed areas. Plant grows to around 1 to 3 feet in height with slender, branching stems and compounded, serrated leaves that gives the plant its species name "serrulata." Showy, globe-shaped flowers, which are typically pink to lavender in color, bloom from late spring to early fall. The nectar-rich blossoms attract hummingbirds, bees, and other beneficial pollinators, while the seeds are an important food source for doves and other small birds. Native Americans utilized the plant for both food and medicinal purposes, as well as for making dyes for blankets and pottery. The seeds were eaten either raw or cooked, or dried and ground into a meal to be eaten as a mush or mixed with flour to make bread. A tea brewed from the stems and leaves was used to treat fevers and stomach disorders, while a poultice made from the soaked, pounded leaves was used to treat sore eyes. The leaves were also made into a decoction and used as a body and shoe deodorant. Direct sow in late fall by lightly pressing the seeds into the soil's surface. For spring planting, mix seeds with moist sand and store in the refrigerator for 30 days (cold stratification) before sowing. Germination should occur within 4 to 8 weeks.
