Lemon Balm
This special herb has so many uses! Commonly used to treat insomnia and upset stomach. It can also be added to oils or lotions.
Germination takes 10-14 days. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant at a spacing of 45cm (18″) into the garden. Choose a shady spot or a location where plants can be protected from the midday sun. Lemon balm prefers fertile, moist soil in a cooler part of the garden. Harvest: 2.5 months but comes back.
