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.

Winter Shipping: We will continue to ship throughout winter. If you prefer, we are happy to hold your order until spring; please include that request in your shipping notes.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
