Wow! I planted four of these ‘Rockin Raspberry’ Bee Balm in the perennial garden at the nursery last summer and look at them now. They are in bloom right now, end of June here in northern, Ohio and every person that sees them asks about them. This beauty grows to about 16″ to 20″ tall,… Click here to read more…
