The blooms dance atop emerald stems, drawing butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds with their sweet nectar and enticing citrusy scent. Your garden will be buzzing with life and colour, a delightful sight and sound enjoyed by you and nature's tiny gardeners.
Standing at just 50cm tall, Monarda Bee Free won't overwhelm your space. It's perfect for smaller gardens, pots, or brightening cottage borders. Plus, it's undemanding! Plant it in well-drained soil and give it a good drink now and then, especially in hot spells, and it'll reward you with its vibrant display. And the best part? These affordable bare-root plants arrive ready to flourish under your care.
No need for faff with chemical sprays, so ideal for organic gardeners, Monarda Bee Free stays blooming healthy on its own, giving you years of vibrant colour. Snip some stems for stunning summer bouquets – your home will be buzzing too!
Awakening your bare-root Monarda Bee Free is easy. Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil, ideally in autumn or early spring. Give the roots a good soak before planting, and water regularly during its first year, especially in dry spells.
