Thread: Too late to plant Monarda?

Started 3 months, 1 week ago by bluenoser_2009
At our local supermarket I saw some Monarda Grand Parade for sale and I was wondering if it is too late to plant it in my zone? Also I have some other bee balm that I would like to move (Petite Delight and Marshalls Delight).Can I do this now or wait for spring?

Today's rains helped to soak the dry soil so I am taking the opportunity to put a few things in the ground in the next few days. Lucky you! We had near record rainfall all summer and now dry as a bone. I'm having to presoak every spot before I can dig and plant (existing beds) so some more rain would be most welcome at this point.
