Monarda – Fireball

Monarda ‘Fireball’ is a compact, fiery-red bee balm that bursts into bloom in mid-summer atop glossy green foliage. This dwarf cultivar—reaching only 15–20 inches in height and spreading to about 18–20 inches—delivers dense clusters of vibrant scarlet, tubular blossoms that are a magnet for hummingbirds, butterflies, and bee. The fragrant leaves exude a minty aroma and the plant is notably resistant to powdery mildew, making it both beautiful and garden-friendly.
