Bubblegum Blast Bee Balm (Monarda) – 1 Gallon Pot

---

---

An easy-to-grow and eye-catching selection of the North American native Monarda, ‘Bubblegum Blast’ Bee Balm lives up to its name featuring bright bubblegum-pink flowers filled with nectar that the hummingbirds, butterflies and beneficial pollinators will thank you for. We love this plant for its unique and lovely fragrant pompom flowers that rise above an attractive mound of dark green, mint-scented foliage from mid to late summer. The foliage is often used to flavor teas. The flowers are also great for cutting and use in fresh or dried flower arrangements. Bee Balm is not finicky about soil type but does like a consistently moist but well-drained soil and at least 4 hours of sun per day.

Bee Balm is easy to grow in a consistently moist, humusy and fertile soil. It thrives in full to mostly sun however tolerates some light afternoon shade. Morning sun is suggested in order to dry dew from the leaves.
