Wild Bergamot bursts into bloom with clusters of fragrant, lavender-lilac, fringed flowers that resemble wild fireworks. Each blossom sits atop a sturdy stem, creating a sea of soft color from mid-summer through late summer. The flowers are not only striking—they’re rich with nectar, drawing in native bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds in droves. The sweet scent of oregano and mint may even draw you back into the garden.
