Melissa officinalis
A delightful herb that is both easy to grow and versatile in its uses. Its leaves give off a refreshing lemony scent that is perfect for adding flavor to teas, cocktails, and baked goods.
- Packet Contains 400 Seeds
- 12-36" plant height
- 35 days to maturity
Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) –
- Family: Lamiaceae (Mint family)
- Native Range: Originates from the Mediterranean region and parts of Asia, where it has been cultivated for centuries as a culinary and medicinal herb
- Hardiness: Perennial in USDA zones 3–8, thriving in a wide range of climates. Tolerates cold winters, with foliage dying back in fall and regrowing in spring
- Sun Requirements: Prefers full sun to part shade—grows best in morning sun with some afternoon shade in hotter regions
- Growth Habit: Grows as a bushy, mounded herb, reaching 18"–24" tall and spreading 24"–36" wide
- Foliage: Features crinkled, oval-shaped leaves with serrated edges and square stems, characteristic of the mint family
- Auroma: When crushed, the leaves release a bright, citrusy aroma reminiscent of lemon and mint
- Drought Tolerant: Once established, it thrives in low-water conditions, though occasional watering promotes lush growth
- Great for Containers: Ideal for pots, raised beds, and indoor herb gardens. Growing in containers helps prevent it from spreading aggressively, as it can self-seed easily in the garden
