But alas, it's a problem I won't be contending with this season...

I've actually been having trouble coaxing my beebalm seeds to sprout and grow. We've had fabulous success with just about everything else, especially the radishes, squash and tomatoes...

I just figured that made sense. Well, I'll figure out something to do with it, I suppose. I'm hoping that by the time the fam and friends get here in May, we'll have lots of goodies from the garden. jeez ~ I read that it’s a great companion to tomatoes, though no where does it say whether to plant it in the same bed or not.

BUT... it's fairly invasive (and comes back every year). it will take over, i assure you. mine has already started to spread outside of the flowerbed and has become part of the lawn that gets mowed. but it smells great being mowed! i would highly recommend getting the bee balm out of your garden asap. it is a lovely plant, don’t get me wrong… i have lots of it.
