Monarda fistulosa – Wild Bergamot
$13.99
A Missouri and Illinois native perennial, Wild Bergamot, Monarda fistulosa, fills the garden for months with distinctive, firework-shaped flower heads. A circle of tubular lavender flowers rests upon a whorl of purplish leafy bracts.
A long-blooming plant, Wild Bergamot makes a wonderful cut flower. The sweet nectar attracts hoards of hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees to the garden. Its aromatic foliage smells like mint and can be used to flavor teas. It is fantastic for rain gardens and naturalized areas.
Plant in full sun.
