Monarda didyma 'Marshall's Delight'

Marshall's Delight Beebalm is a clump-forming perennial with vibrant pink, round, ball-shaped flowers. Blooming for weeks from mid-summer to fall, they attract scores of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The dark green, fragrant foliage sets off the vibrant color. 

When crushed, the foliage releases a spicy fragrance, which can be used to make herbal tea. It makes a great addition to the cutting garden and has the outstanding bonus of a great fragrance.

Performs best in full sun or part shade in moist but well-drained soil. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage new blooms. Fast-growing, Monarda can be divided every three years: deer and rabbit-resistant.
