Planting and Growing with Confidence

Suitable for USDA zones 4 through 9, this flowering perennial thrives in full sun to partial shade. Prepare well-drained soil with a pH between 6.1 and 7.3. Sow about four seeds per plant and space roughly 30 inches apart. Keep the soil near 68 F to support germination, which typically occurs in 14 to 21 days.

• Spacing around 30 inches helps stems stay strong and blooms spread evenly.
• Sun to partial shade accommodates varied garden layouts in zones 4–9.
• Germination usually arrives within 14–21 days with steady moisture.

Pollinator Friendly and Versatile

Red blooms attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, adding lively movement and color to summer gardens. While deer resistance can vary by site, the plant’s scent and sturdy growth are appreciated by many gardeners in wildlife-prone areas.

• Pollinator magnet that supports beneficial insects and birds.
• Excellent for cut flowers, delivering indoor color and fragrance.

Edible Perks and Practical Uses

The leaves carry a pleasant mint-like aroma, and the blooms are edible, offering a subtle herbal note for teas, culinary experiments, or potpourri. Dried or fresh, these plants can enhance a variety of kitchen and craft uses without relying on synthetic additives.
