Lemon Balm (3.5" pot)
Perennial. A natural mosquito repellent! While that fact alone makes lemon balm supremely compelling, there are plenty of reasons to make this a staple in your herb garden. The leaves have a fresh, lemony taste, making them great for salads, a refreshing addition to an ice-cold drink, or delicious in a hot, relaxing tea. In the garden, lemon balm is a terrific companion to any vegetable, flower, or herb. Best grown in 8-10” containers, or a dedicated space, as plants will spread generously over time. They prefer slightly sandy soil that is well-draining. Fertilization is only required for potted plants.
Harvest: When stems reach 6-8”, snip off two thirds
Plant Height: 12-18”
Plant Spacing: 18-24” (in-ground)
