Monarda didyma 'Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball' offers intriguingly shaped, magenta pink blooms with just a hint of blue to their colouration. Flowers are a joyous way to assist your garden's shift between the seasons, with punky shaped flowers and bracts rising above the rich green foliage to herald the pollinators in for a feast and spread their industrious hum. Alongside this captivating beauty, Monarda didyma 'Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball' offers an intense fragrance whenever the flowers or foliage are brushed or picked - almost identical to that of bergamot tea. Plants are equally as happy in a strategically placed pot as they are in the borders so choose places where the vibrant colours and splendid perfume can be fully appreciated. Monarda didyma 'Sugar Buzz Grape Gumball' is a fully hardy perennial which requires no winter protection. As an herbaceous plant it dies back during winter each year and remains dormant until the following spring, when it re-emerges and repeats its flowering cycle. Prefers a position which benefits from rich, moist, well-drained soil in sun or part shade. Plants grow to a height of 60cm with a spread of 80cm.
