The bee balm has been transplanted from my strawberry patch for 3
YEARS, and EVERY spring it re-appears, easily choking the
strawberries. I had originally planted the bee balm in the protected
(fenced-off) area so deer wouldn't get it, but it has become a major
pain. Anyone who plants monarda / bee balm near strawberries is
asking for serious trouble (even worse than what ground ivy does).
