Pardon My Rose™ Bee Balm

Pardon My Rose™ bee balm is a compact, clump-forming Monarda with intense rose-pink flowers and green, aromatic foliage. Proven Winners lists it at 14–18 inches tall by 22–28 inches wide and records spring and summer flowering ([plant profile](https://www.provenwinners.com/plants/monarda/pardon-my-rose-bee-balm-monarda-didyma)). ## Growing Conditions Grow in part sun to sun and keep soil consistently moist. The developer prefers rich, moist soil but says the plant also grows in ordinary garden soil and part shade. Its compact size suits the front of a border or a container, and the profile lists bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, fragrant flowers and foliage, and deer resistance. ## Maintenance Proven Winners categorizes this selection as easy to maintain and describes it as mildew resistant. Check moisture during dry weather, especially in containers, and give the clump room for air movement as it grows.
