Surprising Facts About Bumblebees and Lavender

Lavender produces fragrant, nectar-rich flowers that attract many pollinating insects. As a bumblebee visits the blossoms to feed, pollen can cling to the hairs on its body and travel with it to another flower.

Questions and answers

Questions and Answers

Why are bumblebees so fuzzy?
Their dense hairs help them stay warm in cool conditions. The hairs also collect pollen as the bees move among flowers.
Does a bumblebee eat the lavender flower?
It usually drinks nectar and gathers pollen without eating the whole flower. Nectar provides energy, while pollen supplies important nutrients.
How can a bumblebee fly with such a round body?
Its flight muscles move the wings extremely quickly and create the lift needed to stay airborne. Bumblebees can also control their flight well enough to land on small blossoms.
