Common Name: Bee balm, Beebalm
This listing includes 3 Mondarda starter perennials. We have a lot of Monarda to choose from. The varieties you receive will be based on what's in stock and the health of the plants in our collection.
Monarda, commonly known as bee balm, bergamot, or horsemint, are herbaceous perennials with aromatic leaves and vibrant, tubular flowers in shades of red, pink, purple, or white. They typically grow 2–4 feet tall, with square stems typical of the mint family. Flowers are clustered in dense, spherical heads, attracting pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
These bee balm plants form solid, well-branched domes with strong stems and dark green foliage accented by appealing, purple and pink bracts. A member of the mint family, bee balm's intense aroma makes frequent garden visitors out of many beneficial pollinators but deters deer and rabbits from devouring the plants.
Another great feature of these varieties is that they display above-average mildew resistance. This staple of American gardens has never looked—or smelled—better!

Order Details & Policies
No Returns But Replacements
We do not do returns or offer warranties, unfortunately. We simply can't guarantee the future of plants after they leave our shop and are in your care. But the health of our plants upon arrival is something we'll stand by.
Shipping can stress plants. If there are any issues with your plants when you receive them, send us a chat message from our website. We can issue store credits or send replacements.
Also, our starter perennials are small plants. We do not issue refunds because they are smaller than expected. For more details about plant sizes, see Starter Perennials Shipped Trimmed.
Starter Perennials Ship Trimmed
Starters are small, young plants or plugs, bare roots and bulbs. We do not ship mature plants in containers. We will often trim back growth on our perennial plugs to reduce stress on the plants during travel. Trimming does not hurt the plants. They'll bounce back with new growth. You'll receive your plants carefully wrapped and prepared for shipping in a box.
Plant Sizes
Starter perennials are smaller because they are young. Bare roots and bulbs speak for themselves. We have plug sizes ranging from 1-2 inches x 2-4 inches, although some hostas come in larger sizes.
These are not yet plants at maturity as seen in many of the photos on our store. We have photos of real starter plants on some listings and we are working to post more starter photos this year in 2026. We're adding plug sizes to the plant pages, too. Bear with us as we update all our plant detail pages so you are better informed. In the meantime, if you need more details or a photo of an actual starter, send us a message in our chat.
Delivery
Your order should arrive within 7-14 days. Occasionally, we may hold an order so that we can fulfill it with new inventory we are expecting to receive. Just send us a chat if you need a status update.
