Growing and Maintenance Tips
Monarda enjoys rich moist soil, however it is adaptable to average soil. Sun is best but light shade is tolerated. Dead head spent flowers to prolong bloom. This cultivar has good mildew resistance but ensure that air circulation is good and the soil does not dry out. Regular division is necessary to keep the plants healthy.
