BEE-YOU® BEE PRETTY BEE BALM

Monarda Bee Pretty® is part of the Walters Gardens series BEE-YOU™. It is an enchanting mid-sized Bee Balm that brings a soft, sophisticated palette to the summer garden with its crown-like clusters of orchid-purple to lilac-pink flowers. Reaching a height of approximately 15 to 18 inches, it sits comfortably in the middle of a perennial border, offering a sturdy, upright habit that rarely requires staking. The foliage is a lush, deep green and emits the classic spicy-mint fragrance that Monarda is famous for, serving as a natural deterrent to deer while acting as an irresistible landing pad for honeybees, bumblebees, and hummingbirds. Its unique, "shaggy" floral texture provides a whimsical contrast to more structured garden companions, blooming reliably from mid-to-late summer.

The ideal spot for Bee Pretty® is a location in full sun to very light shade with rich, organic soil that remains consistently moist but well-draining. Like other members of the BEE-YOU™ series, Bee Pretty® was specifically selected for its high resistance to powdery mildew, though it still performs best when given enough space to allow for excellent air circulation. To keep the plant thriving, ensure the soil does not dry out completely during summer dry spells, as drought stress can lead to yellowing or dropped lower leaves.
