Saturdays in the Gardens: Plant Bee Balm for Pollinators (Webinar)




Saturdays in the Gardens: Plant Bee Balm for Pollinators (Webinar)

Led by Brooke McMinn, Friends of Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Saturday, May 15, 2021 | 10 a.m.-Noon

Join us online via Zoom!

Cost: $10

Bee Balms (plants in the Monarda genus) have a long history for being used as medicinal herbs but are now known as fantastic plants for pollinators. There are many new varieties to choose from that have been bred for easy growing and healthier plants. In this class, the Friends' own Brooke McMinn, Director of Education and Visitor Experience, will share tips and provide resources from the National Garden Bureau for planting your own bee balm for pollinators. Novice and seasoned gardeners are welcome!

Preregistration required; registration will close two hours prior to webinar start time.
