Rocky Mountain Bee Plant seeds can be started indoors or directly outdoors in spring after last frost of fall. Also called Bee Spider Flower and Skunk Weed this North American wild version of the garden Cleome grows quickly, featuring attractive foliage with narrow, blade-shaped leaves and producing striking, fragrant clusters of pink or reddish-purple flowers. Bee Spider Flower blooms heavily in summer, providing a good nectar source for bees, butterflies and hummingbirds, and its seeds are important food for small birds.
