Bee Balm - Wild Bergamot

This deer-proof North American native perennial will attract a plethora of pollinators with its lavender-pink blossoms over a long summer bloom period. Clumps of attractive grey-green foliage may darken as the air chills come autumn. The aromatic leaves are often used in teas. Self-sows and spreads underground via rhizomes. Pinch back after blooming to promote a bushier habit.
