Scarlet Beebalm ‘Jacob Cline’ is a pollinator magnet with vivid, scarlet-red blooms that light up the garden in mid to late summer. Its large, shaggy flowers sit atop sturdy stems, releasing a minty fragrance that complements the visual display. Hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies—especially Eastern Tiger Swallowtails and hummingbird moths—flock to its nectar-rich blossoms. Unlike many Monardas, ‘Jacob Cline’ is highly resistant to powdery mildew, keeping its deep green foliage looking fresh all season.

Growing up to 4 feet tall with a tidy, upright habit, this robust cultivar brings height and drama to rain gardens, pollinator borders, and native-meadow plantings. It also shines in cut flower arrangements and mixed perennial beds, offering color and ecological value well into late summer.

Special Note: Scarlet Beebalm ‘Jacob Cline’ is a selected form of native Monarda didyma, chosen for improved disease resistance and garden performance. It retains the straight species’ ecological function, including nectar value, bloom structure, and wildlife support—making it a reliable and beneficial option for gardeners seeking both beauty and biodiversity.
