They're both good, but I'd say I get more butterflies on my echinacea. Of course, my monarda got a bit crowded out last year by vigorous asters, so maybe the butterflies couldn't find it! :)

I second the echinacea vote. Monarda can get powdery mildew so easily, at least in my yard, and it can spread where it's not invited.

Thanks to you both -- echinacea it is. I appreciate you taking the time to answer this question.

I love them both. If I had to pick though it'd be echinacea.
