Commonly known as Spider Flowers, Spider Plants, Spider Weeds, or Bee Plants is Native to South America, below the equator, from Brazil to Argentina. There’s no documented history of how Cleome made it north, though it’s very likely the seeds were carried by migrating birds, or through ancient trading routes. The flowers are unusual, spidery blooms of a pinkish or purple color, sometimes white, followed by thin green seedpods that ripen to brown and split open to disperse the small seed. The foliage is attractive as it is fern-like and delicate. The flower nectar attracts hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and other pollinating insects. Another unusual visitor attracted to Cleome is the hummingbird moth that visits the flowers at dusk.
