Wiktionary
bee balmnoun
The aromatic plant Monarda punctata, native to North America, also called Bergamot (but not the same species as Citrus bergamina used to flavor Earl Grey Tea though similar in scent). Referred to as Bee Balm because bees are attracted to the blossoms which are rich in nectar. In America it is also known as Oswego tea.
