Wild Bergamot
Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa), also known as Bee Balm, is a beloved native perennial that blooms in soft lavender shades, drawing hummingbirds and bees in abundance. Fresh flowers make a lovely addition to salads, dried leaves brew into a soothing aromatic tea, and the plant has a long history as a carminative herb — beautiful, useful, and cherished by pollinators.
