White Dead-Nettle flowers from April into October along roadsides, fences and farmyard edges. Nectar is considered a moderate supply, pollen a low one. It sits deep in the long corolla tube, which is why bumblebees manage much better here than honeybees; not infrequently bees use the holes bitten open at the base of the flower by bumblebees.
