Mystery monarda?
This little fella appeared in 2024 with a fascinating color. It’s much, much pinker than my light purple Monarda fistulosa. I was talking about it to someone who runs a local small native plant nursery and they’ve had similar flowers pop up in their yard and wonder if they’re hybrids between M. fistulosa and M. didyma, which I also have. Who knows 🤷🏼♀️ Regardless, I’m not complaining
Monarda punctata / Eastern Horsemint
