Monarda Sugar Buzz ‘Pink Frosting’
Monarda Sugar Buzz 'Pink Frosting' is a short, compact, mildew-resistant bee balm with pastel pink flowers.
Monarda Sugar Buzz ‘Pink Frosting’ has pastel pink flowers held above the highly mildew resistant, dark green, upright foliage throughout summer. The Sugar Buzz series offers short, compact plants for the front and middle of the border that are smothered in long-lasting flowers. The flowers’ sweet nectar attracts scores of hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees to the garden. The aromatic foliage smells like mint when crushed and can be used to make herbal tea.
