Arturo,
The soil here is clay and rocks. I amend all plantings with compost just for luck.
Summers can be humid but mostly we have one or two one-week spells of hot humid weather.
We are further north than the southern states where its humid all the time.
BeeBalm needs full sun. The Raspberry Wine in the photo has been doing a nice job of spreading for 8 years.
When the root shoots show up where I dont want them I just cut them off.
