YES! When I lived in Texas, it was covered in Monarchs during the Fall migration

Dude I just moved to a house where they had already removed the lawn (insert meme of dude rubbing hands together), and laid down a ton of cinder. The whole thing exploded in cowpen daisy this summer. I didn’t know what they even were until a metric shit ton of them came up. It was a pleasant surprise, albeit a bit nerve wracking until I could ID the seedlings. I collected sooo many seeds, and while I hope I can get some more diversity this next year, I’m stoked to be a cowpen daisy fairy for a while…sprinkling seeds on whatever bare patch of dirt there is around town. I will defeat the mullein! I will lay waste to cheatgrass! all with the help of my little yellow friend.

100%, they’re covered with all kinds of pollinators all the time and require zero care outside of keeping them out of where you don’t want them.
