Horsemint - (Monarda punctata)
Horsemint, also called Spotted Bee Balm or Dotted Mint, is an eccentric beauty with complex blossoms in shades of pinkish purple, green, beige, and maroon. More drought and sun tolerant than most Monarda, it thrives in sandy soils. Honeybees, bumblebees, and butterflies, including the Karner Blue, are drawn to its blooms, while its strong scent keeps deer and other mammals away.
