Full Sun (At Least 6 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height 24 - 50 InchesMature Spread 24 - 50 InchesGrowing Zones 6 - 10The showstopper Raspberry Wine Bee Balm, or Monarda Raspberry Wine perennial, displays gorgeous tubular flowers with deep red and purple shades, reminiscent of a classic red wine. This perennial features large, dark green leaves that look elegant and can even be enjoyed in a salad as they are completely edible, and so are its flower petals. Your flowers will bloom in early summer to early fall and will last a long time. This easy-to-grow perennial will reach a height of 24 to 50 inches and a spread ranging between 24 and 36 inches. Because of the plants sweet, tasty nectar, you can expect hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees to be all over it.Native to North America, the Raspberry Wine Bee Balm has aromatic foliage that when crushed, smells like mint. You can use these leaves to create delicious teas. This herbaceous plant requires very little maintenance and is mildew, deer, rabbit, and disease resistant as well as drought tolerant. It has a rapid growth rate and upright growth habit. You can use these perennials in borders, containers, mass planting, and wildlife gardens.Raspberry Wine Bee Balm Plant CareYour Raspberry Wine Bee Balm will grow best when getting a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight. You can use humus-rich, moist, well-drained soil that is normal or clay-based. It will respond well to any pH level, so you can choose between acid, alkaline, or neutral. Your plant has average watering needs, just make sure to water it when the rainfall in your area is under an inch a week. In addition, you can use fertilizer in spring during its growth phase. The most important thing to note is that this perennial requires good air circulation, so you must thin out its stems to boost airflow and help prevent disease. Cutting back the foliage after flowering will encourage new leaf growth and deadheading spent flowers will encourage new blooms. Raspberry Wine Bee Balm Plant SpacingWhen planting your Raspberry Wine Bee Balm perennial, we recommend that you leave at least 24 to 36 inches of space in between each plant.Raspberry Wine Bee Balm InformationUSDA Hardiness Zones: 6 - 10Plant Type: PerennialsLight Exposure: Full Sun (At Least 6 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height: 24 - 50 InchesMature Spread: 24 - 36 InchesSpacing: 24 - 36 InchesHabit: UprightFlower Color(s): Pink, RedFlower Description: Bloom Period: Foliage Type: HerbaceousFoliage Color(s): GreenFoliage Description: Seasonal Interest: Summer FloweringWatering: AverageResists: DeerTolerates: DroughtAttracts: Bees, Butterflies, HummingbirdsContainer Role: Uses: Borders, Containers, Mass Planting, Wildlife GardensFeatures: Attracts Pollinators, Cut Flowers, Fragrant, Low MaintenanceBrand: American Beauties Native PlantsCommon Name: Raspberry Wine Bee BalmOther Name(s): Scientific Name: MONARDA `RASPBERRY WINE` | Perennials > Bee Balm American Beauties Native Plants 1008414-pc
