Wildflowers - Monarda Seeds
Monarda, a species including Bee Balm and Bergamot, was one of the first native species that we grew out for seed production at Everwilde Farms. It was a good choice, because it is easy to grow, produces a reliable crop of blooms and seeds, and is very popular with our customers. It is also popular with the local pollinators! We had so many insects visiting our field, that it was always abuzz. Bumblebees, honeybees, various butterflies and moths continually hovered over the lavender blossoms. Our honeybees made a lot of honey from the Monarda, and it was reddish in color and had a delicate flavor. I think that it is so well liked by our flying friends because it is in the larger Mint family, and it seems that anything in the Mint family makes a great honey plant.
