European honey bees did not arrive in America until 1622...you have to wonder how did plants here get pollinated before that?

History Of Honey Bees In America

Correct. The honeybee (Italian, Carniolan, etc...) are an invasive species to North America.

Ants, carpenter bees, flies, gnats, wasps, etc.... pollenate pretty well. Just not as intensely like honey bees which will only work one nectar source collectively at one time.
