Monarda 'Croftway Pink' - 2026

Monarda 'Croftway Pink' is a charming perennial that adds a soft splash of colour to any garden. Its delicate rose-pink flowers bloom from July through September, forming dense whorls atop upright stems. The aromatic, lance-shaped foliage provides a pleasant backdrop, enhancing both the visual and sensory appeal of the plant. This cultivar is particularly valued for its resistance to powdery mildew, making it a reliable and low-maintenance choice for UK gardens. Its compact, clump-forming habit ensures it fits beautifully into borders, mixed plantings, and pollinator-friendly areas.

Ecologically, 'Croftway Pink' is highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, supporting local biodiversity. The aromatic leaves, reminiscent of mint, can also be used to flavour teas or add fragrance to gardens. It prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, establishing quickly and thriving with minimal maintenance in most UK garden conditions.
