How can I get rid of Powdery Mildew on my Monarda plant?

Our Advice:

Monarda didyma (Bergamot) will develop this fungal disease when the soil conditions are dry, so the first step is to keep the plant well watered. You can spray the plant with Rosegarde from Vitax. If you prefer an organic solution you can spray with a mixture of Baking Powder @ 5gm per litre of SB Plant Invigourator and water.
