Monarda didyma is a native wild plant often cultivated in Minneapolis gardens. 

Beebalm, Monarda

Paige Dansinger January 12, 2018

Beebalm, Monarda, is edible. All above ground parts of the plant are edible and medicinal. Part of the mint family, the leaves contain thymol giving it a thyme - minty - oregano flavor. Use as seasoning, eat raw, or cook greens like spinach. Drink medicinal tea for stomach, flu, colds, mouthwash, anxiety, or a stimulant. A poultice, (chew/crush/mash plant into paste), applied onto skin helps infected wounds.
