Spotted Bee Balm (Monarda punctata)

From $6.00

I'm native to North America but not to NY state

I attract butterflies and bees.

Hummingbirds will also visit my flowers.

I'm the host plant of the Raspberry Pyrausta butterfly

I like to form clumps.

I'm shorter than other native Monardas, so I make a nice flower for your garden.

My leaves can be used in teas.
