Coral Reef Monarda Plant
Price $6.00
Our 'Coral Reef' Monarda Plant bears oodles of frilly-looking, brilliant pink, pastel and hot pink blossoms.

Bee Balm also has the distinction of having aromatically minty foliage which can be used just as you would use mint, but without the invasive habit. Perfect in wildflower gardens or as a stand-alone specimen, you might want to consider pairing this beauty with an Achillea, such as Moonshine, to give your garden a raspberry lemonade appearance. Definitely fun!

Raspberry Wine Monarda Plant
Price $6.50
Our 'Raspberry Wine' Monarda Plant is one of the most elegant looking Bee Balms, at least in our opinion. Featuring raspberry-pink blossoms defined by deeper colored sepals, these beautiful blossoms rise above medium-green foliage that is aromatically minty. Deer and rabbits will avoid Monarda, while it is highly attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies and the supremely beneficial honey bee. Its leaves are flavorful and can be used in your favorite teas or recipes.
