Lemon Balm – Melissa – Bee Balm – Seeds

This bushy little herb has square stems with summer flowers that progress from white or yellow to pale blue.
With delightfully lemon scented leaves, Lemon Balm is useful in so many ways from salads and liqueurs to tea and baths.
The tonic tea is mildly sedative and, as a wash for wounds, the tea promotes healing by starving the bacteria.
Very powerful Bee attractant in the garden as well.
