Spotted Bee Balm
Should call this Bee Magnet! The blooms weren't even full developed and bees were all over it. Butterflies too. Took right away. Plants arrived in great shape.

Horsemint plants
The horsemint plants arrived safely and in excellent condition. They are planted and I look forward to the time when they will begin to bloom. I hope they will live up to the expectations to keep our mosquito population in check. Thanks for your help.
