Plants that attract Bees

I can only grow plants that are suited to the 5th climate zone.  So, they are:

Oregon grape - I already have grapevines climbing the chain link fence on the south side of my house.  I don't intend on growing more grapes. 

Hyssop - has the properties that fit my needs.

I will have to research these more indepth later.

  • Aster Aster
  • Black-eyed Susan Rudbeckia
  • Caltrop Kallstroemia
  • Creosote bush Larrea
  • Currant Ribes
  • Elder Sambucus
  • Goldenrod Solidago
  • Huckleberry Vaccinium
  • Joe-pye weed Eupatorium
  • Lupine Lupinus
  • Oregon grape Berberis
  • Penstemon Penstemon
  • Purple coneflower Echinacea
  • Rabbit-brush Chrysothamnus
  • Rhododendron Rhododendron
  • Sage Salvia
