Additional Information

Bright, citrusy, and incredibly easy to grow, Lemon Balm is a fragrant perennial herb loved for its fresh lemon scent and calming flavor. A member of the mint family, lemon balm is commonly used in teas, desserts, syrups, salads, and herbal remedies—and it’s just as enjoyable to grow as it is to use.

Our lemon balm plugs are grown in biodegradable Ellepots, encouraging strong root development and quick establishment after transplanting. Ellepots reduce transplant shock and allow roots to grow naturally into the surrounding soil for healthy, vigorous plants.

Lemon balm thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers evenly moist soil. It grows vigorously and can spread over time, making it ideal for containers, raised beds, or managed garden areas. With regular harvesting, plants stay lush and productive throughout the season.
