Monarda punctata (Spotted Bee Balm) Height - 2' or Less Carex pensylvanica deposit mass amountsMonarda punctata (Spotted Bee Balm) is a sandy and dry soil loving cousin of the more common Mondarda fistulosa, it is easily recognizable by its multiple whorled stacks of white pink bracts tucked above or below clusters of yellow flowers. It is also one of the most tolerant of drought and full sun of its kind. This plants attractiveness is a plus to how well it performs in harsher, hotter conditions.
