Compact, Monarda ‘Bubblegum Blast’ (Bee Balm) is a clump-forming perennial boasting hot pink flowers, 2 in. across (5 cm), borne in dense, globular terminal heads. Blooming for weeks from mid to late summer, they rest upon a whorl of decorative bracts and attract scores of butterflies and hummingbirds. The showy blossoms rise on strong, well-branched stems, clad with aromatic, dark green leaves, which exude a mint fragrance when crushed, and are often used to flavor teas. Creating captivating border displays, this Bee Balm variety is perfectly suited to the middle of the flower border.
