Monarda 'Raspberry Wine'
Monarda 'Raspberry Wine' has, as its name suggests, reddish-purple flowers that blossom midsummer to fall on 36" stems. The aromatic, mint scented foliage of this bee balm has very good mildew resistance, though a preventative fungicide can help keep the foliage looking its best through the season. Grow all bee balms in a consistently moist, cool location for the best blossoms and best growth.
