The Beneficial Bee Blend is a native bee seed mix designed to provide season-long nectar, pollen, and habitat for honeybees, bumblebees, and native solitary bees. With 20+ species of native wildflowers supported by native grasses, this blend delivers continuous blooms from spring through fall.
Carefully selected species provide a continuous succession of flowers throughout the growing season, helping ensure bees can find food from their first emergence in spring until the final blooms of fall. This diverse planting supports a wide range of pollinators while also providing habitat for other beneficial insects.
Adapted to full sun through partial sun and dry to mesic soils, this bee-friendly wildflower seed mix performs well in pollinator gardens, meadows, roadsides, conservation plantings, and naturalized landscapes. Native grasses provide structure, nesting habitat, erosion control, and long-term stability.
The result is a resilient planting that supports bees throughout their entire life cycle while also attracting butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators. For monarch-focused habitat, check out our Monarch Habitat Mix. For a grass-free option, explore our Pollinator Forbs Only Mix.
Seeds and seed mixes ship nationwide, year-round, typically within 3–5 business days. If you would like to postpone a seed mix shipment until fall, please note this at checkout.
Live Plants:
Live plants are available year-round while inventory lasts and ship to all states except California, Arizona, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Alaska, and Hawaii. After your order is placed, we’ll contact you to coordinate a spring shipping window, as many plants are overwintered and ship once dormancy breaks.
Estimated shipping for 2026 plant orders begins in mid-April, weather permitting.
If you’re looking to secure plants in advance or need larger quantities for a project, we offer contract growing options. Contact us to discuss your needs and request a quote. Additional species not listed online may also be available through contract grow.
Live Stakes:
Live stakes are available by request only and must be ordered by submitting a contact form. Ordering is open seasonally from November 1 through February 28. A minimum of 100 stakes per order is required, with at least 25 stakes per species.
Live stakes ship only to the following states: Missouri, Minnesota, South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, and Iowa.
PLS stands for Pure Live Seed, an industry-standard measure of seed quality. It reflects the portion of seed in a batch that is viable and capable of germinating.
What this means for you: when you purchase 1 lb. of PLS seed, the physical weight of the seed you receive will be slightly more than 1 lb. That’s because we account for non-viable seed and natural inert material upfront, so you receive a full pound of live, plantable seed.
Many companies sell bulk seed by total weight, which can include filler and non-viable seed. By pricing based on PLS, we make sure you’re getting exactly what you paid for—high-quality native seed with more predictable, successful germination.
