Video - Bee Balm, great for pollinator AND culinary gardens

Doug shares a story about planting Bee Balm from his mother's garden and the beautiful results. These pollinator plants are great for attracting butterflies, bees and hummingbirds to your backyard garden. Bee Balm (Monarda didyma) has also been used for herbal medicine bringing relief from the following ailments: gas, nausea, upset stomach, indigestions, fungal infection, yeast infection, rashes, sore throats, headaches and sore muscles. Bee Balm also has culinary uses such as teas, salads, cooking meat, sauces and pestos. Bee balm is deer and rabbit resistant as well as a great cut flower. Great for USDA zones 3-9, this summer perennial is great for all sunny flower beds. Here are some links to order Bee Balm for your garden.
