Monarda ‘Petite Delight’


Dwarf Beebalm

 USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.365.120


Beebalm is a traditional favorite for the perennial border, with a striking display of bright flowers through the summer months. Bred by Agriculture Canada, this variety was selected for its compact habit and resistance to powdery mildew. ‘Petite Delight’ is truly a breakthrough, offering gardeners the chance to use Beebalm at the front of the border, or as an edging plant. Flowers are clear lavender-pink, over fragrant grey-green foliage. Excellent in containers. Remove faded flowers. USPP#10784: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
