We have a perennial mint in our garden called (according to the landscaper) *Elsholtzia sauntonii* (??). It vaguely resembles Monarda, grows about 4' high, blooms late in the summer with dull purple flower spikes that look a bit like caterpillars. Bumblebees are CRAZY for this plant. Every night last season it was covered with sleeping bees. A real draw. Is anyone out there familiar with this plant? It is not in our big fat all-inclusive perennial book, and the landscapers do not answer their phone. It seems harmless ( I mean horticulturally) but from long experience I know not to assume so.
