Pale St.John's Wort (Hypericum ellipticum)

From $6.00

I’m a native of NY state

I’m found in wetlands often in areas with little competition.

I have a larger flower than most Hypericums.

I’m important for bees, especially the bumblebees

I do not produce nectar, but attract many insects for my pollen.
