In part from your comments on Monarda aka Bee balm Jacob Cline and its mildew resistance, checked it out (isn't google great?!) Looks to be a natural cultivar, but doesn't set seed, or least viable seeds. So, one starts with a plant. Duh! Does it spread and thus could be divided later? Is it a short lived perennial, but with spreading carries on? Looking for comments and experience with this plant.
Getting slightly distracted here as there is some house building going on. M/M cardinal are setting up housekeeping in the camellia outside my window. She's doing the heavy lifting, bringing pieces of dried grass, leaves etc and working the nest while he's out. He stops by to check on her. What a guy!!
