Plant Care

Fireball Bee Balm is relatively low-maintenance once established. Remove spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering and prevent self-seeding. In late fall, cut stems back to ground level. Monitor for powdery mildew and ensure adequate air circulation between plants. Divide clumps every 2-3 years in spring to maintain vigor and prevent center die-out.

Planting Instructions

Plant in spring or early fall, spacing plants 18-24 inches apart. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Place plant at the same level it was growing in the container, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly. Apply a 2-inch layer of mulch around the plant, keeping it away from the stems to prevent rot.
