      Bee Balm ‘Jacob Cline’ (Monarda didyma ‘Jacob Cline’) is a bold and beloved perennial known for its large, scarlet-red flowers and strong, minty fragrance. Blooming in mid to late summer, its tubular blossoms cluster in showy heads that are irresistible to hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. A standout in pollinator gardens, this variety is also highly regarded for its vigor, mildew resistance, and tall, upright habit. Its aromatic foliage, part of the mint family, can be used to make herbal teas and adds a fresh scent to the garden. Perfect for borders, cottage gardens, and naturalized plantings, Jacob Cline is one of the most reliable and striking bee balm varieties available.

        2. Location: Choose a sunny site with rich, moist, well-draining soil.

        3. Preparation: Dig a hole twice as wide and the same depth as the pot.

        4. Planting: Remove plant from pot, gently loosen roots, and place so the crown is level with the soil surface.

        5. Backfill: Refill with soil, firm gently, and water well.

        6. Spacing: Space plants 18–24 inches apart to allow good air circulation, which reduces mildew.
