As with most monardas or bee balms, root cuttings most times of the year are successful, or divisions as plants emerge in spring, or cuttings of new growth. Easiest are root cuttings, with pieces of root laid in a moist medium such as potting soil, or half vermiculite and perlite. Don’t keep too wet. Also easy is dividing off pieces of the main plant in spring, with several shoots per division.
