I am absolutely overrun with monarda. This past fall, I pulled up handfuls, and just threw it out because there was so much. In the spring, I pulled up still more handfuls, and threw it out AND I actually transplanted some to other areas in the yard, and I still have too much.

I think the reason why I have so much is that I deadhead after it blooms so that it is able to rebloom. I'm sure that there must be thousands of seeds in my yard. I have raspberry wine, jacob cline, and a lighter shorter pink one whose name I don't know. It just spreads so easily, and quickly. I don't do anything special to it, but the soil is in good condition.
