Monarda didyma


Cette jolie plante aromatique vient d'Amérique du Nord et Tim a la chance de la rencontrer quand il randonne.
This pretty aromatic plant I have in my European garden came from North America. My friend Tim may meet it when rambling in wilde space !

It is a gorgeous flower; I hope to chance upon it.

Tim, really, you don't recognize it ? I think you showed a photo of it on the 13th of July.
Your picture was gorgeous indeed !
The Vosgian garden where I took the purple ones has also pink ones. I bought one !
The gardener told us that English army used it as tea when in America !

If I recall correctly, these flower petals seem to be thicker and fuzzier than what I posted. But maybe my memory fails me.

Depends the soil, the rain and so on, as animals or humans ! Mine is not yet well implanted.
