Monarda ‘Jacob Cline’, fondly known as Jacob Cline Beebalm or Red Bergamot, is a delightful clump-forming perennial that dazzles with its vibrant red, crown-shaped flowers. These beauties bloom for weeks from mid-summer to early fall, making them a favorite among bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The lush, dark green foliage not only adds to the beauty but also complements the bright flowers beautifully.
To help this lovely plant thrive, it prefers full sun or partial shade and enjoys moist yet well-drained soil. To keep the blooms coming, remember to deadhead those spent flowers. Plus, Monarda grows quickly and can be divided every three years, and the best part? It’s resistant to both deer and rabbits.
