Strictly Medicinal Lemon Balm Seeds (Organic)

Lemon balm is a fragrant and resilient perennial herb cherished by home gardeners and small-scale growers for its calming qualities, pollinator appeal, and ease of cultivation. Belonging to the mint family, lemon balm produces soft, lemon-scented foliage and delicate yellow to pale flowers that bloom in mid to late summer. It is a reliable addition to herb gardens and mixed borders, offering both beauty and utility across USDA Zones 4 to 8. This plant thrives in regular garden soil in either full sun or partial shade. Sow seeds in spring after the last frost. For improved germination, lightly scarify seeds by rubbing them on fine grit sandpaper before planting. Sow seeds directly on the surface, barely covering them with soil. Press in firmly and keep the area evenly moist until germination occurs—typically within 10 to 14 days. Once seedlings emerge, thin or transplant to allow 2 feet between plants to support healthy growth and airflow. Whether you're cultivating a home apothecary or
