    Tufted beautiful (Phacelia tanacetifolia)
    Nature currently offers a rich color spectrum. Between yellow cornfields and green maize fields, especially individual purple-colored flower carpets are striking, reports the Chamber of Agriculture of North Rhine-Westphalia.


    The beautifully blue-violet flowering about 60 centimeters high plants with delicate hairy leaves is shrub beautiful, botanical Phacelia, a Wasserblattgewächs that have sowed farmers in April or May to green their decommissioning areas. Phacelia is a valuable food source for insects, especially bees, so it is also called bee lover and bee pasture.

    For the farmer Phacelia brings many agricultural benefits. Tufted beautiful ensures a very rapid intensive soil cover and prevents dangerous Weeding of the fields. The plant promotes the soil and the crumb structure of the soil and is also ideal for preparing a mulch seed of corn and sugar beets next year. However, Phacelia does not flower as a catch crop after grain sown in August or September. The non-hardy plants die after the first severe frost and then offer the best soil protection.
