This is different. I love the blotchy color! You're finding some good stuff Theresa. It must be so good to be there

@columbiariver these are from seeds that fell all over last year in pots etc! Still waiting for permitting/ financing/realtor people to get it all together 😔 someone keeps dropping the ball and extensions keep being made... My hope is to be in my house by Christmas!

Oh no. So sorry to hear that Theresa. Hope everything works out better for you as soon as possible. That must be so upsetting. My thoughts are with you for good days ahead in your new home. 🤞🤞👍😊 Lovely flower too 💗

That's so pretty - a bit different than your other ones! Just read your comment above - I didn't realize you hadn't moved onto your new property yet! Hope all the paperwork goes thru soon as I'm sure you're anxious and frustrated by now.

Thank you 🥰 @hkyfvr @gjones it is very frustrating! first it was all the rain, then something, and then something else... But tending to my downsized garden keeps me sane! I am seeing many different forms of this flower this year, it will be fun to see what flowers bloom next year 😁

Always welcome 👍😊

This #monarda #spottedhorsemint #spottedbeebalm has slightly different colored flowers 🤔

Very pretty!💜

#spottedbeebalm #monarda #horsemint love the purple spots!

So pretty. 💜🤍

Beautiful photo. 🤩

This is different. Really cool!

Very beautiful

You know I love these. Mine has taken awhile to get going but I think we might have enough time for a few flowers. Fingers crossed the frost stays away for a couple more weeks.

Flowers like a punk spikey hairdo!

Very cool plant !! New to me 😍😍

You have some of the most outrageous looking plants Theresa, I love them! Thanks for posting!💘😍

The horsemint seeds you sent me germinated well but the plants are still small - hope it has time to flower this year. Do you have yours in full sun?

@gjones I'm sure you will get flowers this year! Yes it is in full sun 🌞

Thank you 🥰 @ShelleySnyder @sherrisgarden

My pleasure!💘😍

Welcome 😀

Layers and layers of exotic interest😍

#horsemint #upclose looks like the flower has buck teeth! 😂😂😂

🤣

It's beautiful in a different way. I like the patterned petals/leaves😊

Yes it is @gjones never seen another one around.... this is suppose to be a native plant... guess I need to get out and about a little more! Wish it would cool down a bit, I'm tired of being hot and sweating all the time!! 😂😂😂😂

@treefrog44 it's hot here for the next few days (in the 30's), then we're back to normal autumn temps (around 18 to 19C)

#horsemint #monarda #spottedbeebalm #newgrowth thought this was all done blooming

#horsemint #spottedbeebalm

That looks really pretty!

#horsemint #monarda

It's such an exotic flower. Like decorated tiers on a cake!

Exotic is right!! How cool!💘😍

Wowza! That's a gorgeous structure 👌🌿

Love!!

#horsemint #monarda

#horsemint #monarda #eggs will be interesting to see what hatches 😯

Ooh, can't wait! 😘

#horsemint #monarda

Pretty the way it blooms in tiers!

@seclarke this is the one I’m talking about

#horsemint #monarda love the different levels!

So much detail.

This is flipping fantastic! Love this! So whimsical! 🥰

@KariSamuel will save seeds to swap!
