Description
Monarda ‘Bee Lieve’, commonly known as Bee Balm or Bergamot, is a delightful perennial that adds vibrant color and charm to any garden. Its uniquely shaped flowers, a beautiful blend of soft lavender-pink and purple hues, are held in dense clusters that stand out against the lush, green foliage. Not only is this variety visually striking, but it also serves as a magnet for pollinators, attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds throughout the summer months.
A reliable performer, ‘Bee Lieve’ blooms from mid to late summer, providing a long season of colour and interest. Growing to a height of 80–90 cm, it is an ideal choice for the middle of borders, where it adds both height and movement to planting schemes. Its upright stems and clump-forming habit make it a practical and attractive addition to any garden.
This hardy perennial is adaptable and easy to grow, thriving in full sun or partial shade and preferring moist, well-drained soil. Its aromatic leaves, which release a minty fragrance when brushed or crushed, add a sensory element, making it perfect for sensory or wildlife gardens. Monarda ‘Bee Lieve’ is an excellent choice for creating a cottage-style border or a meadow-inspired space, offering enduring beauty and ecological value.
