Plant Features

Jacob Cline Bee Balm Plants produce gorgeous striking-red flower blooms that virtually guarantees hummingbirds, butterflies and bees will flock to your garden. The fragrant foliage is more resistant to powdery mildew than most older varieties. Beebalm plants flourish on a wide range of soils but do their best with moist, well-drained soil. It is a mid- to late season bloomer for butterfly and hummingbird gardens. Monarda can be planted under black oak trees. Deer and rabbits tend to avoid bee balm.

Our Monarda (Bee Balm) Plants are grown with care and free from harmful pesticides, ensuring they are a safe and vibrant addition to your garden. Guaranteed to arrive healthy and ready to thrive!

Planting Instructions:

  • - Best planted in spring or fall for optimal root establishment
  • - Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for mature growth and air circulation

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-7.0
  • - Prefers moist, well-drained soil with plenty of organic matter

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water thoroughly when first planted, keeping soil consistently moist
  • - Once established, water regularly to maintain moisture, especially during dry spells

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to promote healthy growth and blooming
  • - Avoid over-fertilizing, as too much can lead to excessive foliage and fewer blooms

Pruning and Training:

  • - Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming
  • - Cut back stems to ground level in late fall or early spring to promote fresh growth

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Monarda is generally pest-resistant but may be susceptible to powdery mildew; ensure good air circulation to prevent this
  • - Monitor for aphids and treat if necessary

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Blooms from early summer through late summer with vibrant, tubular flowers in shades of red, pink, purple, or white

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Hardy in USDA zones 4-9, tolerates heat and cold but may need extra water in dry climates

Companion Plants for Monarda:

  • - Echinacea: Complements Monarda with its bright, daisy-like blooms
  • - Salvia: Adds vertical spikes of blue or purple that pair well with Monarda’s tubular flowers
  • - Coreopsis: Offers a continuous display of yellow blooms that contrast beautifully with Monarda’s colors

Gorgeous!

Beautiful! Happily planted and growing! Hummingbirds are happy!

From Adrienne | August 05, 2022

Bang for my buck

I don't know of anything that is more worth the money than bee balm, and specifically Jacob Cline. The color is attractive to pollinators. I never have had as many hummingbirds until bee balm. I've never been disappointed, and that is rare, by an order from GrowJoy. Watching the sales is causes repeated orders but the plants are worth it.

From Marie | July 14, 2022

Bee Balm!

I was hesitant to buy Jacob Kline because of the heat and humidity here in Texas. Joe S. suggested I pot it and provide some shade during heat of the day. Seems to be doing very well so far. Thanks.

Jacob Cline - Bee Balm - Monarda

Ordered 5 plants and all arrived in good packaging, leafy and ready for planting. I like the way they look and cannot see any reason they will not be successful. I'll be pinching them back several times until July 4 to keep them from getting 7 feet tall.

From Jim | April 27, 2019

Still trying to survive

I ordered two types of monarda. One hanging in there, not much growth, this one was doing great until heat set in (100+ degrees, then puny-ed out. Put in shaded area with diffuse light and is recovered but no blooms. Hummingbirds are looking elsewhere, and the monarchs are eating my dill and rue.

Monarda

Plant arrived well packaged, healthy and ready to transplant. After pairing it in a pot with the Rudbeckia it has totally taken off and is thriving. Out of all my plant orders from GrowJoy, this is my favorite plant and I'm looking forward to seeing its flowers along with those of its sunny Black Eye Susan companion.

From Mary | June 20, 2018

Bee Balm

The Jacob Cline Monarda plant arrived in beautiful packaging, very good condition. Unfortunately, the deer nibbled it a bit, so I'm hoping they leave it alone!

From Denise | May 22, 2017

Big, healthy plants

The Jacob Cline Monarda plants were carefully packed in ingenious containers that prevented damage in transit.

From anonymous | May 20, 2016

Another vigorous plants from GrowJoy!

I was thrilled when my Jacob Cline Monarda arrived! Another healthy plant from you! I can't wait until it blooms!!

From Vicki | July 02, 2015

Satisfied with these Monarda

Arrived quickly and in great condition, can't wait for it to bloom.

From Katie | June 07, 2015

Jacob Cline Monarda

I heard lots of negatives about Bee Balm, that it grows all over the place and is messy, but the 3 that I have grow & flower nicely. If they spread too much I just pull a runner up and move it or give it away. The Hummingbirds really DO love them!!

From Andrea | June 16, 2014

Nice monarda plants

These arrived well packed and very healthy. Within a one week of planting they have already grown significantly. Can't wait to see them bloom later this summer.

From Marci | May 22, 2014

Gorgeous Red Blooms!

Jacob Cline is the best Monarda for Hummingbirds! The flowers are big, red and gorgeous, attracting the Hummers to the flowers! I have it in a container and can't wait until it blooms again! Love it!

From anonymous | May 09, 2013

Great Plants!

I am very happy with Jacob Cline Monarda plants. They came in great condition, and I can't wait to see how they grow.

From Frederick | May 01, 2013

Monarda

Fast shipping and arrived in perfect condition. First time getting the Jacob Cline Monarda. Can't wait to enjoy it in my tea and cooking. Also it's a great anti-fungal product, fights mold.-
