Phacelia tanacetifolia is known by the common names lacy phacelia, tansy-leaf phacelia, blue tansy, purple tansy or fiddleneck. Phacelia tanacetifolia is native to the Southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. It is most common in the deserts of southern California. It is used outside its native range as a bee plant, an attractant for other beneficial insects, and an ornamental plant. It is planted in vineyards and alongside crop fields, where it is valued for its long, coiling inflorescences of nectar-rich flowers which open in sequence, giving a long flowering period. It is a good insectary plant, attracting pollinators such as bumblebees and honey bees. It is also attractive biological pest control agents hoverflies because they eat aphids and other pests.
