Petite Wonder Bee Balm

Petite Wonder is a dwarf bee balm with light pink flower clusters above dense, glossy green foliage. Its rounded, compact habit makes it useful at the front of a border, in small gardens, or in a container. ## Flowers and form The plant patent describes Petite Wonder as a compact hybrid, smaller than Petite Delight, with light pink flowers and good winter hardiness. A nursery listing gives mature height and spread of 9–12 inches and hardiness zones 4–8. The flowers are listed as a summer feature and attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
