Monarda (Bee Balm)

Monarda didyma

Showy cerise-red blooms on stiff, upright stems that blanket the lush, bushy, minty-basil-scented, dark green foliage. This carefree, naturally rounded plant with a uniform habit is truly mildew free. Plant en masse for an inviting display of color in sunny borders and containers. An herbaceous perennial. Butterflies adore it!
