Marje Pink Bee Balm

A pollinator’s dream with vibrant pink, shaggy blooms, ‘Marje Pink’ Bee Balm brings long-lasting summer color to any garden. Unlike older varieties, this compact, mildew-resistant Monarda stays lush and healthy all season, delivering bold flower clusters on sturdy, well-branched stems. Blooming from mid to late summer, it’s an absolute magnet for hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees, all while repelling deer and rabbits. At just 12-15 inches tall and 30-38 inches wide, it’s ideal for borders, containers, and small garden spaces. Low maintenance, high-impact, and impossible to ignore—this is bee balm done right!
