Product Description
The striking Monarda, also known as Bee Balm, comes in a great mixture of colours with spiky blooms at a height of 60cm. Flowering from June to September, they are a great choice for planting in the garden border or patio containers where they will attract bees. These hardy perennials have spicy scented foliage and make excellent cut flower arrangements but are also very versatile when planted outdoors. They will thrive in all areas of the garden from direct sun to shaded areas where other plants may struggle. Regular dead heading will encourage longer flowering. Loose rooted plants supplied.
We guarantee our great value mixture packs contain a comprehensive blend of variety and colours. By definition the components of the mixtures are not labelled/named on arrival.
