I have been admiring my neighbor's plant (Monarda
citriodora) but did not really like the mulch background as I could not blur out that well. She told me it is a bee balm. It has many names, considered a wildflower with medicinal uses. Unlike the monarda didyma, it keeps adding bloms the taller the stalk gets. It blooms for a really long time. I tasted it and it is very pungent aftertaste - almost pepper like. It has low growing foliage compared to the Monarda
didyma. Native Camera app - HDR. Postprocessing PSE 11.
