Bold, untamed, and buzzing with life—‘Marje Rose’ Bee Balm doesn’t just bloom, it explodes. With neon-pink, shaggy flowers that light up the garden from mid to late summer, this compact Monarda is a magnet for hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. And while the pollinators throw a party, the deer and rabbits? They stay far, far away. No mildew drama, no leggy mess—just thick, aromatic foliage and flower power that refuses to quit. At just 12-15 inches tall and 30-38 inches wide, it’s small enough to tuck into containers but wild enough to own a border. Toss in low-maintenance care, extreme resilience, and unapologetic color, and this bee balm is an absolute knockout.
