HERB CARE
Lemon balm can be harvested any time after the plant has developed an aroma. Rub the light green leaves for a hint of lemon scent. Use in bouquets to lemon scent a room or brew an invigorating medicinal tea.
Lemon balm’s peak scent and flavor appear when you see the first flower buds forming. Prune the plants by two-thirds once the flowers have faded to encourage the growth of new leaves.
