Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball Bee Balm

Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball Bee Balm (PP27,498) is one of the Sugar Buzz series of Bee Balms (Monarda). Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball has good resistance to powdery mildew and a non-aggressive habit. In early summer, the fragrant foliage is covered with textural 2-inch magenta flowers that attract all kinds of pollinators from bees, to butterflies, to ruby-throated hummingbirds. Plant Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball Bee Balm in moist to average soils in a sunny spot for best bloom. Deadheading the first flush of bloom will create side shoots for a second show. Leave the seed heads standing in fall and winter to provide food for birds, and cut down in the early spring. Bee Balm has a wide native range in North America. Consider using with smaller native grasses for a textured border. Deer resistant.
