Lemon Balm Plant

• Leaves have a delicious lemony scent and flavour
• Very versatile herb
• Use it in herbal teas and juices or in salads and stuffings
• Flowers are a magnet for pollinators

A must-have for every herb garden, lemon balm has bright green leaves with a fabulous lemony scent and flavour. Clusters of tiny white flowers appear in summer, attracting bees and other pollinators. This versatile herb makes delicious herbal teas and smoothies, and gives salads and stuffings a lemony tang. A relative of mint, it has a tendency to spread both through its roots and by self-seeding, so plant it in a pot and cut back the faded flowerheads to keep it under control.
