[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks to y'all for your help! It's not bee balm. It looks much more like astilbe, though--only individual plants and not bushy at all. The "petals" are feathery and very velvety looking and feeling. I can take a pic tonight and post. The reason anyway that I am trying to find out is to look online for advice, but perhaps you might have some. Even before this terrible heat, the flowers started looking like crap. I'm wondering if I should cut them and they'll grow back, or if this is it for the season.[/quote] Are you sure its an annual. Most annuals (which are really tropical plants) do not wilt in the heat as long as they are getting enough water at the root level. Astilbes BTW are very sensitive to heat and need to be kept in partial shade. Are the leaves wilting as well.[/quote]
