Notes:
I have planted so many things over the years that get eaten up by the deer year after year. This year, despite the fact I look like the Clampets, I have chicken-wire fences everywhere to keep the deer out. Lo and behold things are blooming like crazy. not sure what this one is…but it is beautiful!

Thank you both. It appears to be Monarda Purple Rooster. Starting to fade away not in the heat but what a great surprise it’s been.

Maybe something in the beebalm group (Monarda), possible Monarda didyma (?). Check out the included link below for one of the cultivar ‘Purple Rooster’. Best wishes! https://www.bluestoneperennials.com/viewer.html?itemcode=MOPR&startwith=1
