DamavandPro Melissa officinalis Seeds: Premium Lemon Balm (2500 Seeds)

From DamavandPro, these Melissa officinalis (lemon balm) seeds offer an easy way to add a refreshing, citrus-scented perennial herb to your garden. A long-established favourite in monastery gardens since the Middle Ages, lemon balm is valued for its versatile leaves, whether you’re picking fresh sprigs for garnishes and zesty teas or drying them for year-round use.

Growing into a robust, bushy plant, it thrives in garden beds and adapts well to container cultivation. Crushed leaves are noted for their high concentrations of citronellal, and the plant is described as a prolific self-seeder once established. Lemon balm is also highlighted as a pollinator magnet, attracting honeybees and butterflies to outdoor spaces.
