Midnight Oil Bee Balm is an upright herbaceous perennial with aromatic deep green toothed foliage that emerges bronzed burgundy.  The tubular soft pink two-lipped flowers with purple spots blooms in whorls at the top of the square stems from late spring into summer, attracting bees and butterflies.  Best bloom in full sun and well-drained soil.  Deadheading can prolong the summer bloom.  Mildew resistant.
