New for 2025 - Monarda punctata - aka Horsemint - Striking and graceful perennial. Quite different in appearance to other monarda species, their creamy pink bracts and tan speckled flowers are unique. The whole plan is sweetly fragrant. Native to eastern North America, within Canada their range extends into southern Ontario and Quebec. Excellent food source for native pollinators. Their wild habitats include dunes and meadows, so they'll thrive in dry soil and full sun.
