Lemon Balm Plug Plants Melissa officinalis

Common names include sweet balm, bee balm and balm.

An aromatic perennial herb with softly crinkled green leaves that release a fresh lemon scent when brushed. Clusters of small, creamy-white flowers appear from June to September, attracting bees and other pollinators in abundance. Lemon balm is a traditional herb widely used for teas, culinary dishes, and herbal remedies to promote calm and wellbeing.

Thriving in most soil types and preferring a sunny or lightly shaded position, this versatile herb is perfect for herb gardens, borders, and wildlife-friendly planting. Its gentle spreading habit makes it ideal for naturalistic schemes where its fresh scent and pollinator value can be enjoyed.

Our strong, healthy plug plants are grown in 40cc cell trays and are ready for planting directly into their final position.

Sourced from UK-grown stock, these plugs are an easy way to establish this useful and wildlife-friendly herb in your garden.

We recommend planting 5–7 plugs per square metre for the best effect.
