Balmy™ Lilac Bee Balm (Monarda didyma 'Balbalmac') is a compact version of the originals growing to a manageable size of 12 inches tall and 10 inches wide. She's perfect en mass on the edge of the garden bed or near a rain garden. This lilac edible is notably mildew resistant and attracts the pollinators with her purplish-pink blooms. Her blooms appear in a rounded daisy-like shape, with tubular petals sticking up as a spiked-hair do! They bloom throughout the season if the soil is kept evenly moist and come back as a perennial yearly in zones 4-9. Enjoy years of edible delight and showmanship!
