Monarda plants bring bold colour and attract pollinators to summer borders. Hardy and easy to grow, our hand-picked varieties arrive ready to plant and enjoy season after season.
Monarda plants are a great way to add bold summer colour and bring more wildlife into your garden at the same time. They’re upright, clump-forming perennials that work brilliantly in borders, adding strong shape and bright flowers that stand out without needing constant attention.
One of the biggest reasons to choose monarda is the pollinator factor. Bees love it, and it’s an easy way to make your garden feel more alive. Monarda also helps borders look fuller, especially when planted in groups. Mix it with other summer favourites like echinacea, salvias and grasses for a border that looks busy (in a good way) and keeps going through the warmer months.
Monarda is also practical. Give it a sunny spot and decent soil, water it while it settles in, and you’ll have a reliable plant that comes back year after year. It’s a solid option if you want colour and height, but you don’t want anything too fussy or fragile.
We’ve curated our monarda range for UK gardens, focusing on popular varieties chosen for strong growth, dependable flowering and good garden performance. Your plants are carefully selected and packed for safe delivery, arriving ready to plant and enjoy. If you want bold colour, a fuller border and more bees without extra work, monarda is a smart buy.
