Bee Balm, Grape Gumball

Most hybrids are of Monarda didyma parentage and are easily grown in average, medium to wet, moisture retentive soils in full sun to part shade.
Those of Monarda fistulosa parentage are more tolerant of drier soils.
Prefers rich, humusy soils in full sun, but appreciates some afternoon shade in hot summer climates.
Soils must not be allowed to dry out.
Remove spent flowers to improve plant appearance and possibly to prolong bloom.
Divide clumps every 3-4 years to prevent overcrowding and to control mildly spreading tendencies (slowly spreads by rhizomes).
Provide plants with good air circulation to help combat fungal leaf diseases.  #1 gallon
