   Wrote about  monarda which is different than  the  traditional
Oswego Tea,  which is also known as the "root beer" plant because  that
is the way the leaves should smell when crushed.

The  red and purple flowered varieties in my garden still have the true
scent.

The white flowered variety  has the  "off" scent.  I take care to
deadhead all the white flowers but allow the others to free seed.

The flowers of all varieties attract butterflys and hummingbirds.
