Bumblebees Pollinating Dahlias
A fluffy bumblebee hovers over blooming dahlia flowers in a country garden setting. A watering can and a pair of gardening gloves sit nearby among the blossoms.
Natural History of Bumblebees and Dahlias
Bumblebees use a specialized technique called buzz pollination, vibrating their flight muscles to release stubborn pollen from large flowers like dahlias. Dahlias originated in the high plateaus of Mexico before becoming popular garden ornamentals worldwide. Unlike honeybees, bumblebees can fly in cooler temperatures and light rain due to their dense, insulating fur.
