Best Answer

Like other species of bees, Arctic bumblebees feed on nectar. Some blossoms that provide nectar are Arctic poppy, Arctic rose, Arctic willow, bog blueberry, and lingonberry. The bees feed while the plants are blossoming during a period of about 2 ½ months between late May and early August. Pregnant females will then hibernate, often in mice nests under the tundra, and the remainder of colony will die.
