Jacob Cline Bee Balm

I planted in area where hummingbird feeders are, along the front of my house.

Initially beautiful, but quickly developed powdery mildew gr

I planted this for the hummingbirds and I wish I had bought a few more of these. It was the only plant that I purchased that actually done well, it was very beautiful. I was not disappointed in this plant.

I should have ordered a few more

Beautiful flowers in terms of color. Really cool flowers that look like each is wearing a fancy hat.

Excellent plant!

Apparently I needed to have protective netting around it, as some creature feasted on it and there is just a stalk left.  Maybe it will recover?

Disappointed that some creature chomped on it.

I got my plant in the fall in Virginia and could not stand the thought of putting such a little, fragile plant outside!   Thus, I put it in a pretty red pot and kept it in the foyer until April next to an obscure glass window.  It grew a little, but didn'

Blooming In June . . . .

It's a very tiny plant. First time I got one in very bad condition, almost dead. Then they sent me a replacement pretty soon in a very good healthy condition. But it's still tiny. I'm patiently waiting it for blooming and attracting humming bird.

still trying

Little plants but healthy root system.  Planted and doing well, getting bigger each week.

Jacob Cline Bbe Balm

Arrived healthy and is thriving.  Can't wait to see them flower.

Can't wait to see.

one was perfect other had the tops cut off so they could fit it in shipping box

one was perfect other had the tops cut off

It arrived quickly and took well to our herb garden. #sweepstakes

Very healthy

It's worth it.

Very disappointed.  Several years in a row I have ordered these and they always die. 
I purchased another color bee balm and that died, too.    I had beautiful bee balm plants in my previous garden, but I purchased it through another company.

Came with black spots and died

This plant, despite being beautiful, is delicate. I've tried it 3 times, and each time it came either broken or dead. 

The issue is not due to packaging; it's packaged well enough. It's alive, I'm just not sure it will survive transplant success.

It's a

Not sure about this plant

Great company!  I had one of the other plants in my order that arrived wilted and died and Sean reached out to me and replaced it for free!  Thank you American Meadows!

Plant is doing great!

These were packaged wonderfully. They had zero damage and kept all their dirt. They are thriving indoors while I wait to plant so I dont get surprised by some late frost. Can't wait to see them bloom!

Best Packaging Ever

For a large flower box in full desert sun.

I would buy this product again.

The plant was delivered in a very poor condition, small, dead leaves and branches. Don't know if it would survive.

plant in poor condition

just to have for my hummingbird! They love it.

Very Pretty I would buy again

The product came as described, small in size but healthy. I planted it immediately in May (zone 5B). Kept watering regularly and it's now August. The plant has more than doubled in size and is blooming first year. Beautiful red blooms, exactly as I hoped 

Beautiful plant, I'd buy again.

Love this plant..it's strong and tall the humming birds love it! plus it's creating little baby plants of it's kind all around it so I will have more next year!

It grew tall and strong first year

Using as a pollinator plant for personal garden. The hard freeze this winter may have suppressed its growth spread. I hope it has a better time this winter

I hope that for a better year next year. Very modest growth

They were looking great growing, but are extreme heat in Az has them looking not good.

Yes, arrived fast in great condition!!!!

I planted these in part shade per instructions…..I will transplant to a sunnier location where I think they will perform better.

I will transplant

Love my bee balm, so vibrant.

I love these flowers I received the plants last fall healthy great instructions on how to plant
I never expected such great results for the first year amazing.  The only drawback is these are very tall we had a major storm this summer very high winds.  A 

Great flowers

I planted 2 of these, in the same area, last autumn, One, is doing incredibly well, just bloomed with 3 more buds coming through, and looking absolutely gorgeous. Sadly, the other one grew a little at first, but didn't make it through the winter - we had 

Planted in last fall, and already looks stunning

My hummingbirds go absolutely crazy over this bee balm! It is one of the many plants that I have that I could just stand out there and watch them go bananas over! I have 3 of them and I can't express enough how beautiful they are and the smell is just so 

HUGE HIT

Planted this Jacob Cline Bee Balm in a 3 gal planter. Should have payed better attion how big it world get, Hummingbirds love this plant. I'll be putting in to a 7 gal pot this coming spring.
Easy to grow can't go wrong. Love it.

Beautiful Plant

Al four plants settled in despite the blasting Virginia summer heat and powerful rains, now spreading and thriving with big blooms. Very happy.

Ordered and planted 4 monardas in early summer.

my first year for native plants ,  they came in nice box healthy and bloomed this year .

i would buy this again

The flowers were taller than I expected so I will move them further back in my bed next year.

Tall Beautiful Flower

I bought 3 of the bee balms. They were tiny but healthy. They began to grow and unexpectedly, they actually bloomed this year!!! I thought it would take at least until next year but the little rascals surprised me. So glad they are now a part of my garden

I didn't expect THIS ????

I was excited by it, it started growing but unfortunately, the weather became so hot so quickly, that it died. I will try it again.

I will try again with this product

These came up like they had been here for years.

Wow!  Just wow!

So surprised it bloomed the year, stunning flowers

Absolutely buy again

Grows and spreads fast,. You can control spread by removing some new growth and plant elsewhere if you want, but to get full plants and flowers, cut back about two times before summer otherwise they tend to get tall and lanky.

I bought two of these and they both have grown nicely. Something in my garden is eating the leaves and they don't seem to mind. They have made many lovely flowers and I like the color much better than the usual pink and purple bee balms.

Great!

I just received my box today. Very excited! Directions say to plant in Fall, so that will be my weekend project for the 4 various Fall planting babes I got.  Leaving 3 stars at present,  because upon opening the box, only 1 plant was actually in it contai

Just received!

Looks great, even in my partial shade garden!  Watched a hummingbird visiting all of the blooms this evening!

Looks great.

I planted two 4 by 16 ft side by side raised beds with Joseph Cline bee balm. They are doing very well for their first year. Can't wait to see them next year!! I am using purse lane as a natural ground cover. Hummingbirds are loving them. Between the beds

Exactly what I wanted.

These plants arrived in good shape thanks to the interior packaging.  The exterior was really banged up so I was concerned for them, but they survived.  Also pleased with the size and condition of the plants.  They are happy with their place outside.  The

These plants were a happy surprise

Love second year results

This monarda arrived well-packaged but was rather small-sized.  It took over 8 weeks to acclimate itself to the Northern Alabama climate and predominantly clay soil...which is NOT altogether unusual for plants not purchased from a local source.  This Bee 

Jacob Cline Bee  Ballm

I always loved this plant in CT because the color is so vibrant and the hummingbirds love it and was excited to see it would grow in Florida.  One of the two plants was brown on arrival and died but the other one is thriving and blooming.  Such a stunning

Stunning plant in the garden

Plant seems healthy - I haven't seen any growth yet but I expect I will when it gets a bit warmer. It's got a big job to do so I'm hoping it grows and does it's job!

Healthy Bee Balm

This plant came with my preplanned garden (amazing garden) last year! I live the way it smells! All summary I had tons of hummingbirds all over it! I was impressed with its growth the first year. It is off to a great start this year! It's spread nicely. C

Love this plant! It will not disappoint

I purchased this to create more options for my pollinators in habitats I have around my home.  I only received 1 plant, so I cleared a great area for it to grow.  I grew, but it was long and spindly.  I did get 1 gorgeous flower, but that was the extent o

Bee Balm for your garden

Love this plant.  Next year it will be even better!

Love this plant

Brand new garden. Wish I had ordered more. Love your mail packaging.

Love the Bee Balm. I wish I had planted more.

Great plant! Good size! I hope it comes it makes it thru the winter!! 
One plant come thru broken!!

Great Plant

Adds color to the yard. Interesting flower

Amazing color in a wildflower garden. Tall beautiful plant

Gorgeous red, and almost always in bloom. Many positive comments on how beautiful they are. Plant in partial to full sun, and let them go! Easy, with spice scented leaves. Butterflies love them.

Great Choice!

Still standing after a bad hail storm. Handles heat, drought, and high humidity. No mildew. Good in shade, and medium sun. Always in bloom. Don't forget to deadhead!

Vivid color! Go Big Red!

Replacing the variety that I had lost. Not quite as tall as what I had. Hard to find in my area. Somwill probably be ordering more! Our hummingbirds LOVE THIS as do the bees ????????and butterflies

Perfect

I love Jacob Kline Bee Balm. The color is excellent for the summer and the plants are healthy. I wish I had bought more of them!

Bee Balm Jacob Kline

Absolutely beautiful in bloom

I bought these last year. One bloomed that year. The second was planted in dry spot and almost died. I was able to move it and it is getting ready to bloom this year. These are fairly thirsty plants and need shade. These are getting ready to bloom in the 

Pretty red plant

I got to two of these. One bloomed and grew about two and half feet and is showing new growth at the base. The second one I did not plant in a good spot and did not grow very well. Looks like it is best to plant them where they get the morning and afterno

Great addition for butterfly garden and wonderful color!
Late bloomers and large size but did what I'd hoped- very happy with these plants.

Reaaly amazing.

loved this plant - and since I lost almost all my plants to Superstorm Sandy, it really lifted my spirits!

everything i bought from AM came up!

I purchased the Bee Balm to attract Hummingbirds but never thinking they would bloom this year.  Well they have not only bloomed but have helped keep Hummingbirds in my yard till the last week of September.  Very hardly and a no maintenance plant.  I will

Pleasently Suprised

Love BEE Balm

Did not bloom this year

I love the color and the minty smell.  Blooms attractive and butterflies love it.  Would recommend planting where you can confine it.

Wonderful color and thriving!

I use this as a back drop for my other flowers in front of it...get tons of compliments...I just hate it when then start falling over and they stop blooming. But they are bigger and brighter every year!

Absolutely Gorgeous

My plant arrived quickly and was very healthy...!!!....It is in the center of my bee/butterfly/hummingbird garden and is taller and brighter than all the other "attractions" and has become my favorite...!!!  I shall plant several plants next year...!!  Th

The Star of My Garden !!!

I used these in my butterfly/hummingbird garden.  They are still on the small side, so hopefully will return in the spring stronger and taller as stated in the description.

Splash of color

I purchased 3 for 3 extra large pots. They did well last year, but this year, Oh My! The pots are full and they are already almost 3' tall. I can not wait for the blooms. I know the hummingbirds are going to love them as much as I do!

A Real Worker

This is a wonderful addition to any garden! Saw many a butterfly hover at this plant, as well as actually seeing several hummingbirds flitting around it. I ordered several of these. I will order more in the next few years. I didn't place them together, an

Great addition to any garden!

Lovely plant to attrack butterflies and hummingbirds.  Spreads easily.  The 2nd season it so much bigger!

Very nice and easy to grow

Beautiful, unique, wonderful plant for the garden! Attracting hummingbirds and butterflies galore! These prolific flowering plants are a must-have for any level of gardening. The bright red color of the blooms are an eye-catching sight to behold. Super ea
