What are plugs? Plugs are plants grown in 72-cell trays; each soil plug is 1.6” wide x 3.2” deep. They are a great option for planting large gardens. We plant all of our own projects with plugs.

Bradbury’s Monarda is a fantastic addition to any garden. It is very short and spreads slowly, making it perfect for garden borders. It’s related to wild bergamot. The foliage of Bradbury’s Monarda is attractive on its own, having deep green leaves with shades of maroon and purple in spring and fall. Pretty pink flowers turn into interesting round balls after blooming, providing year-round texture and interest. This is a staple in many of our garden designs.

Short enough for borders. Bradbury’s Monarda (Monarda bradburiana) looks good when planted among short grasses such as Prairie Dropseed because it blooms before the grasses grow tall.
