HOW TO GROW WILD BERQAMOT


Sow seeds in flats, and barely cover them with soil. When the plants have their first true leaves, transplant into individual containers. Transplant outside into the ground when plants are 3-4” tall in late spring or summer (6-8 weeks after starting seeds), 12”-18” apart. Keep the soil moist but avoid overhead watering as plants are susceptible to powdery mildew. Divide the plant every 3 years by replanting new side shoots and composting old center growth. Wild bergamot prefers well-drained but moist sand, loam, clay slightly acidic or calcareous soil. Flowers in its second year. Soil pH 5.1-7.8. Hardiness zones 3-9. Perennial.

##Wild Bergamot is a showy perennial that has clusters of lavender purple flowers that look like ragged pompoms. They bloom at the top of 2-5’, open-branched stems. The aromatic leaves make a lovely tea. The flowers are an incredible pollinator attractant, and are especially valuable to grow in the garden to provide food to native bees. The oil from the leaves has traditionally been used to treat respiratory illnesses. Deer resistant. Also known as Bee Balm. Tags: Color: Purple, Specialty: Pollinator Attractant, Season: Summer.

Wild bergamot is found in the US east of the Rockies, eastern Mexico, and southern Canada. It grows it dry open woods, wet meadows and ditches, fields, at the edges of woods, and some marshes in east Texas. Its genus, Monarda, was named about a 16th century Spanish botanist, Nicolas Bautista Monardes. Its species name, fistulosa, means tubular. ##Homestead Culture##Conventional##Seed grower since 2018##//cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0129/8922/files/homestead-culture-icon-round-green-210x165.png?v=1736446224##Homestead Culture is a small family homestead in Southern Oregon offering seeds for gardening enthusiasts, homesteading and permaculture.

Long lasting and safer alternative to sticks
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
These are great, very durable, and have lasted a very long time. Much safer for my dogs than the random sticks they find in the yard. They do get shorter with chewing eventually, but they don't break off in little chunks like I've seen with some nylon chews, and they don't splinter like wood. Medium size works well for both my 16 lb Cavalier and my 60 lb Pyrenees/Golden mix. They're both moderate-to-aggressive chewers, though size obviously affects how much damage they can do. I wish you could buy the hemp chew separately because that one is very much a favorite in my house, so after 2 years and 2 purchases, I have barely any left of the remaining hemp chew, but still 2 of the dogwood chews that neither dog is as interested in anymore. I'd love to buy a couple more of just the hemp one.

Your dog will thank you.
Color: Dogwood & Fresh Breath, Size: Large
My dogs loves to chew on these. They make a small mess but not as bad as other chews. They are food for keeping teeth clean.

Nice chew toy
Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium, Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium
Super durable and puppy loves it. It was a bit hard for her at first but now at 5 months it’s one of her favorite things to gnaw on! It is heavy for the size but seems to be great quality and has given many hours of chew time with minimal wear.

Puppy loves these sticks!
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
Dogs love these sticks! Must smell and taste like real wood because it keeps my puppy from bringing real sticks in the house from outside. She is a heavy chewer and these sticks keep her occupied. We are on our 2nd set.
