Monarda 'Snow Maiden' - 2010 (Monarda didyma)

I've found this varety to be a strong, reliable one so why is it so hard to find?

I like that, never seen the white before

I want this one too, will look for it.
They have to be a strongly mildew resistant variety for here though because all others fail to thrive.

Found it :-))))))))))))))))
Thanks Andrew, will get this one !

Interestingly, although we are crying our for rain here, none of my monardas have got mildew so far

That's interesting ..... my Prarie Night suffered so badly i removed each and every clump :-((((
I've got 3 different ones now, all chosen for their resistance to it - here's hoping that's right !

When we (that is, the Garden Club) did a Show Garden a few years ago, we had some monarda for it but they mostly had mildew on them. The guy in charge of the Council Nursery gave us a tip - polish the leaves with leaf shine and the RHS judges won't notice. He was right!
