More Information

Description Pollinators will feel like a kid in a candy shop after seeing Sugar Buzz® 'Berry Taffy' bee balm (or Monarda) flowers in your garden! Their hot pink flowers are hard to miss, drawing in scores of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Its tidy and compact habit is a delightful addition to mixed beds, patio containers, and pollinator gardens.

We wanted to carry Sugar Buzz® 'Berry Taffy' for one distinct feature: its deep green and purple foliage. The leaves are the perfect backdrop for the hot pink foliage in summer, but after the flowers fade, the foliage keeps its appeal until dormancy. This bee balm is resistant to powdery mildew, unbothered by deer, naturally tidy, and easy to grow!
