bare-root plants
Monarda didyma

3-4' tall. Fabulous blooms in a diverse range of red shades destined to attract scads of butterflies and hummingbirds for your cats and kids to chase in vain. One of the best hummingbird magnets nature has to offer!

Wild and wily flowers form with tubular petals on pincushion heads borne above colorful bracts in July and August. Aromatic foliage. Good for borders, for wet areas and for cutting. Delicious used as tea or added to meat and bean dishes.

Plant 16–20" apart in moist soil, sun or shade; in shade its bloom time is longer but foliage is more susceptible to powdery mildew. In full sun, keep it mulched and watered. Self sows and forms a nice clump over time. Z3. Maine Grown. (bare-root crowns)

Additional Information

Herbaceous Perennial Plants

When you receive your order, open the bags and check the stock immediately. Roots and crowns should be firm and pliable. Surface mold is harmless and will not affect the plant’s future performance. Store plants in their packaging in a cool (35–40°) location until you are ready to plant. If it’s going to be awhile, you can pot up your perennials.

Do not plant bare-root perennial plant crowns directly outdoors before danger of frost has passed. Wet and/or cold conditions for an extended period may cause rotting.
