During the American Revolution, families turned to bee balm when British tea was boycotted. Most people have forgotten this.

In the tense, cold winter of 1773, early American colonists completely abandoned their morning habits to stand against overseas taxes. Instead of buying standard black tea, you would see them crumbling bright, fiery red wildflower leaves into rustic tin cups.

They poured boiling water over the scarlet petals by flickering lantern light, brewing a warm, citrus-mint beverage.

Here's what most people don't know... the secret to this illegal alternative tea came directly from the Oswego tribe, who shared the botanical with frontier settlements. Known famously as Oswego Tea, it quickly became a fierce national symbol of colonial self-reliance and political rebellion.

It is inspiring to realize that a common red wildflower growing in the woods once played a massive role in shaping the history of your country. We walk past these brilliant scarlet blooms today without ever remembering the revolutionary fire they once fueled for your ancestors.

Honest question — had you even heard of bee balm or Oswego tea before today? No judgment either way.

Good morning all. I would like to thank Kim and Tracy for attending the combination planter design class. I hope you enjoyed learning what you need to prune off to have a nice layered effect. Next year you can come and with a little bit of shopping you can choose your plants and go home and create a little piece of living art.
