(Bee Balm)
Zone 4
Full Sun/Partial Shade
Bee Balm is traditional favourite for the perennial border, with a striking display of richly-coloured flowers through the summer months. Foliage is delightfully fragrant. Powdery mildew may be a problem in summer. A favourite of both butterflies and hummingbirds. Bee Balm spreads quickly; reduce clump in early spring. Garden selections all have been bred from native North American wildflower species. Good heat tolerance. Flowers are edible.
