Yellow Beeplant

Peritoma lutea

Yellow Beeplant (Cleome lutea) is an annual forb native to Western US states (such as Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, and California) that can thrive in USDA Zones 5–10 as a summer annual. Reaching a mature height of 2–5 feet with an erect, branching growth habit, it features palmately compound green leaves and produces dense terminal racemes of bright yellow spider-like flowers with long protruding stamens. It thrives in dry, sandy or gravelly soils, desert valleys, and washes in full sun and is ideal for desert wildflower restoration, roadside stabilization, and native bee conservation.
