Bee Balm Seeds

A member of the mint family, bee balm is a pollinator favorite and perfect for hummingbirds and butterflies. Its wispy blooms appear in summer and accompany tall foliage that has a lovely aroma often used in garnishes. Because of its stature, bee balm makes a wonderful plant for the back of a cut flower garden. The blooms have a vase life of about a week if you don't decide to snack on them first—the flowers are edible!
