Notes

'Bee-Pretty' spotted beebalm (Monarda didyma 'Bee-Pretty') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun. Pink blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees all summer. The foliage is fragrant, and cutting the plant back encourages reblooming. Deer tend to browse other plants first.

Pairs well with Monkshood, Ostrich fern, and Wormwood.
