Lemon Balm |
English herbalist John Gerard described in the 16th century that lemon balm "comforts the heart and driveth away melancholy and sadness". The sweet citrus flavour of this herb makes it perfect for tea and its flowers are a delight for honeybees. The plant is a hardy perennial that is happy in good soil, wether in sun or shade. It spreads quickly but is easily checked with a sharp shovel.
