thanks Claudia.

that Bee Balm started out as a 1 gallon pot, it is now about 5 feet wide by 10 foot long.
If it can't overrun it's neighbor plants it just goes around them.

Nice pics! I noticed that my Bee Balm kind of dwindled this year. There is only one stalk with a bloom on it!. It looks rather odd out there all by itself. :lol:
