Description
A famous American wildflower with bright red, crown-shaped flowers that everyone and every hummingbird loves. 'Jacob Cline' is not a man-made hybrid, but a natural selection of wild Bee Balm, noted and bred for its mildew-resistance. Given enough air circulation, 'Jacob Cline' will stay mildew free much longer than many Bee Balms, making it a valuable addition to the perennial border or meadowscape.
'Jacob Cline' was featured as very attractive to hummingbirds in a Mt Cuba Center Trial Garden Research Report. These reports evaluate native plants and related cultivars for horticultural and ecological value, highlighting the ecosystem services they provide.
