Approximate Seed Count: 300Melissa officinalis. Lemon balm is an heirloom herb that grows much like mint, except far less invasive. It has a citrusy smell with a touch of mint and is amazing in teas. Used to help soothe symptoms of anxiety, depression, and the common cold, this herb is loaded with antioxidants and vitamins as well as essential oils that should find their place in anyone’s tea garden. Home-grown tea is far better than anything from the store since it is picked at peak freshness.
Zones 5-8
I love how cute the packaging is for the seeds, and all of my seeds looked great! The ones I planted germinated very quickly and look amazing.
Have been very happy with all seeds purchased ( great germinatin ) and love the videos
I started these indoors and they germinated well, can’t wait until spring/ summer
I know its not supposed to be "as invasive as mint" but I had one plant that almost became a shrub in a raised bed. Not too long after runners made their way into the yard, and we had Lemon Balm growing in the grass. Luckily we could keep it in check with the lawnmower. I'd put this one in a planter on the patio where it's fully contained. Nature finds a way.
I planted several of these in my garden beds. They have done wonderfully. Here in 6a, the lemon balm comes back every year bigger and more beautiful. I love it as a light summer tea. My kids just love breaking off leaves and crushing them for a wonderful scent. Lemon balm seems to be pretty well mannered for a mint!

Trifecta has been my trusted partner in the garden for my vegetables and to start my dahlias. Thank you MI Gardener team!
Fantastic Zucchini!! Very tender tasty and huge :)))
As described. Good germination.
We have nice fertile soil in our greenhouse and able to control those pesty little flea beetles that can decimate eggplants foliage. I've been keeping them under control with DE and my eggplants are massive in size, about 3-4 feet tall with 1 foot lower leaves.
The eggplants fruit are developing nicely, nearly doubling in size daily. There are plenty of blossoms too. We're expecting that we won't need to grow more for a few years, we're planning on freeze drying most if them.
I purchased several packs of seeds from MiGardener during the semi annual sale, and they did not disappoint! Nearly 100 percent germination rate on all seeds I've planted. The only thing I haven't been able to germinate is lemon grass, which I'm learning may 1 take a very long time to germinate in general and 2 need bottom heat to help them sprout. Even without being on sale 2 bucks a seed pack for the amount they give (very generous compared to other companies, I might add) is a crazy good deal. If you have been on the fence, I encourage you to give MiGardener seeds a try! Thank you Luke and team, and Happy Gardening to all!
