Lemon balm is a bushy perennial in the mint family, typically grown in herb and sensory gardens. In the summertime, it produces a white flower that attracts bees. When crushed, the leaf releases a refreshing, lemony scent, which is used medicinally as a calming agent. This is a great herb to add to water for a refreshing summer drink!
