Gemma Sarracenia<p>Well, that was timely. I got all salty that the peeps who I've been telling to keep their hands off my tiny pollinator square wouldn't and kept killing my stuff (mowing my "weeds", throwing heavy equipment on the garden bed), and this bee balm (rip) was really popular. But, I get some money tomorrow, and I found a list of black owned seed companies the other day, and I've found non-Amazon sourced Wild Bergamot :).</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pollinators</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bloomscrolling</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://www.urbangardenplants.com/wild-bergamot-seeds" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">urbangardenplants.com/wild-ber</span><span class="invisible">gamot-seeds</span></a></p>
