Description: Spanish Needles Bidens Alba This is quite an interesting 'weed'! Papa started pulling the Bidens Alba and throwing them in the fire pit. I said "Wait! I just read how beneficial these are to pollinators!!" So, Papa stopped pulling and the next morning decided to do a little research. At first, we assumed it's a Florida Native wildflower because it is just everywhere! But, it isn't. Bidens Alba seeds were brought to Florida by the Spanish. It's extremely medicinal and kept Papa reading for hours!!Do yourself a favor and take a little time to do some research on this plant. It can be extremely helpful in many situations. Well, now Bidens Alba is allowed to grow anywhere on the farm. And, we are listing the seeds for sale too! We are even going to spread the seeds this Fall to other areas of our farms. Be careful where you plant these though! The seeds are 'hitchhikers' and will attach to clothing, shoes, cats, and livestock. Be sure to not plant near a playground or main garden beds. This is a plant best left on the 'back 40' in no-mow zones. Bidens Alba is a great nectar source for pollinators and has been a staple in wildflower gardens. Our patches are just covered in bees and butterflies throughout the day.
