Monarda ‘Fire Marshall’


Beebalm

USDA Zone: 5-9

Plant number: 1.365.640


Beebalm is a traditional favourite for the perennial border, with a striking display of richly-coloured flowers through the summer months. This selection features oversized shaggy heads in red with pink undertones. Foliage is delightfully fragrant, and significantly more resistant to powdery mildew than most older varieties. A favourite of both butterflies and hummingbirds. Beebalm spreads quickly: reduce clump size in early spring. Garden selections all have been bred from native North American wildflower species. Cross made between two of the best beebalms for midwestern gardens, M. ‘Marshalls Delight’ and M. ‘Jacob Cline’. Developed by Dr. Jim Ault at the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe, Illinois. USPP#23286: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
