Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa)

$0.00
Coming Back in April '26!

With her fragrant lavender colored plumes, Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) is easy to spot in the garden.

Even if you didn’t see it- the sound & movement of hummingbirds, finches, bees and butterflies surely give her location away! 

Plant Profile

  • Thrives in Full Sunshine but will enjoy partial shade. 

  • Dry to moist soils, wants sites with good drainage. 

  • Tall up to 4’ and wants elbow room & good air flow

(*note: powdery mildew does not harm Monarda plants but signifies its time to cut your stems to 12” for new growth to emerge!)
