Notes
'T & M Superb Mixed' spotted beebalm (Monarda didyma 'T & M Superb Mixed') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, and rain gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, clay soil. Fragrant red, pink, and white blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
