Dense ball-shaped flowers in red really punch some color into the border or patio container. The abundant flowers of Monarda Fireball are held close atop their dense foliage and have fringy petals that almost seem to burst from the top of the bloom like a miniature firework display. Although many Monarda are grown for their stature, this shorter version widens the selection with its compact habit. Monarda are very attractive to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. With both fragrant foliage and colorful flowers, Bee Balm is ideal for making potpourri or herbal wreaths. (Source: Bluestone Perennials, Inc.)
