FREE: Lemon balm, 1 qty live plant

The listing, Lemon balm, 1 qty live plant has ended.

Lemon balm--aka Sweet Melissa-- is a nice perennial to have in the herb garden. Great in tea and to give cooking a light lemony taste. Medicinal, too. http://www.self-reliance-works.com/2010/11/the-benefits-of-herbal-medicineshow-to-grow-and-use-lemon-balm/ A tea made with this will soothe the upset tummy and aid in sleeping. Easy to grow and self sows, so you’ll always have it if you allow it to go to seed. You can clip from the plant all summer to use and it’ll grow right back, it is a relation of mint, I’m told.

It grows ~1 foot tall in USDA zones 2-8, full sun, part shade, most types of soil and drought tolerate.

You get one live plant with a well-established root system. Even if it gets to you all wilted, just plant the roots and it’ll grow fine. Can’t kill this thing!

It is a hassle to have to relist an auction because of careless bidders. It is a waste of my precious time. Sorry to be harsh, but I’ve been increasingly put-upon and I don’t like it nor need the trouble.**
