Monarda 'Melua Burgundy'

Monarda X Didyma

Extra Large Plug Plants x 6 (More info)

Monarda 'Melua Burgundy'

Extra Large Plug Plant x 6


‘Melua Burgundy’ is an easy to grow, herbaceous perennial with intricate flowers of dark purple through summer and into autumn. The flowers are borne above lightly fragranced, lush green foliage on erect stems up to a metre tall, making it the perfect choice for creating a stunning backdrop in beds or a standalone piece in containers. A wonderful choice for attracting pollinators while also extending the flowering season.


Please note herbaceous plants naturally die-back during the colder months. We always ensure plants have at least some growth during this time, however when buying during October through to March, the growth may be minimal and there may be blemishes from winter cold.

What am I Buying?

Plug plants are small, young plants grown in cell trays. Even the largest plug plants, described as extra-large or jumbo, are still small plants from cell trays and not established plants. Plug plants can be great value compared to buying more established plants however they may need some extra care to get them started. Caring for Plug Plants

We recommend starting plug plants in a small pot and not planting directly into open ground or large pots/planters. You will want a plant pot roughly the size of a tea mug, commonly referred to as 7cm or 9cm pots. Ensure the pot has plenty of holes underneath and preferably over two tiers for even better drainage.


Reduced Plastics

Please note: In order to lessen our environmental impact, all of our plants will be removed from their plastic cell trays or pots before sending. Ensure you are ready to pot your plants when they arrive.
