Monarda didyma 'Balmy™ Purple' (Bee Balm)

Monarda didyma ‘Balmy™ Purple’
(Balmy Series · Bee Balm)

‘Balmy™ Purple’ brings rich purple color to sunny gardens with rounded flower clusters held above dense, aromatic green foliage. Its compact habit gives it the look of traditional Bee Balm without taking up as much space, making it especially useful in smaller garden areas.

It works well near the front of perennial borders, in pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, and containers. The flowers attract hummingbirds, bees, and other pollinators, while the foliage offers excellent mildew resistance and is generally avoided by deer and rabbits.
