Description
Monarda Cranberry Lace, also known as Bee Balm, is a beautiful perennial with clusters of bright raspberry-pink flowers and fragrant leaves. It’s loved by pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making it a great choice for wildlife-friendly gardens. The fringed flowers sit on tall, upright stems, adding a splash of colour to borders, cottage gardens, or natural planting areas. With its hardy nature and long bloom time, Cranberry Lace adds easy charm to any outdoor space.
This plant grows to about 60-90 cm tall and forms bushy clumps of dark green, mint-scented leaves. The flowers bloom from mid to late summer and last for weeks, adding colour when other plants start to fade. It is also resistant to deer and rabbits, keeping its beauty safe from browsing animals.
Monarda Cranberry Lace pairs well with other mid-summer plants and grows best in well-drained soil with full sun or partial shade. The leaves are mildew-resistant, staying healthy and lush even in humid weather. The fragrant flowers and leaves are also great for cutting and using in floral arrangements.
