Monardella is a genus of approximately 40 species of annual and perennial plants native to western North America from British Columbia to northwestern Mexico.

The two-lipped, tubular flowers are formed in terminal clusters and are most usually red, pink, or purple.

As of February 2024[update], Plants of the World Online accepted the following species:[6] Most like a sunny, sharply drained site and can be attractive in a rock garden or pot in the alpine house if smaller species are selected.

Propagate from seed or summer cuttings of perennial species, or by division of clumps.

Monardella is a nectar plant for many Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), including the endangered Myrtle's silverspot (Speyeria zerene myrtleae).
