Lemon Balm Herb

Lemon Balm Herb is an open-pollinated, perennial heirloom that matures in 35 days. 18-24″H plant has 4-angled stems with 1 1/2-3″L oval toothed, shiny green leaves. Produces insignificant pale yellow flowers in summer. Spreads vigorously. Lemon Balm Herb is a popular ingredient of herbal teas, having a pleasant flavor and calming effect. Used to treat colds, flu and indigestion. Fresh leaves give a lemon flavor to salads, soups, sauces and meats. Approximately 3,000 seeds per ounce or 48,000 seeds per ounce.

**Lemon Balm grows well with most vegetables especially since it attracts bees and other beneficial pollinators, while the strong, citrusy odor deters several unwelcome pests, including gnats and mosquitoes.
