Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of plants are good for planting near a beehive?
Bees thrive near lavender, clover, sunflowers, borage, and native wildflowers. A nursery like this one can help you choose varieties that bloom at different times so your bees have forage from early spring through fall.
Is pick-your-own available year-round in Selma, NC?
Most pick-your-own farms in Johnston County operate seasonally, with peak activity in spring and summer. It's best to call ahead since availability depends on what's currently blooming or ready for harvest.
Can I find pollinator-friendly plants at a farm nursery?
Yes, many farm nurseries in the Carolinas carry plants specifically attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Ask staff to point you toward native species, which tend to be the most beneficial and lowest maintenance.
How do I know if nursery plants are safe for bees?
The main concern is pesticide treatment. Ask the nursery whether their plants have been treated with neonicotinoids, which can harm bees. Organically grown or untreated stock is the safest choice for planting near hives.
Do farm nurseries in this area carry hive supplies too?
Some farm operations in rural Johnston County carry basic beekeeping items or can point you toward local suppliers. For dedicated beekeeping equipment, you'd want to contact a specialty bee supply store as well.
What's the benefit of buying locally grown flowers versus store-bought?
Locally grown flowers are cut fresher and haven't traveled long distances, which means longer vase life and less waste. For gardeners, locally grown nursery stock is already acclimated to the region's heat and humidity, giving it a better start.
