$8.99
Shorter Monarda bradburiana hybrid with dark chocolate red leaves and stems in the first half of the season. Mildew resistant and a bit earlier blooming than other tall Monarda didyma hybrids. M. bradburiana genes bring good mildew resistance, a shorter clumping habit, reddish color in leaves and stems, and better tolerance to heat, humidity and drought.
Deep purple flowers appear in midsummer, and the leaves turn greener with the summer heat. 'Mojo' is deer resistant, but attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Perfect for flower beds in the full sun, herb gardens, and pollinator or butterfly gardens.
Patented cultivar under PP#29,982. Unlicensed propagation is prohibited.
