Monarda citriodora. Not a true mint, this variety is a dramatic addition to the herb garden. Clustered towers of purple flowers bloom to attract pollinators as they release a heavenly scent. Crush the leaves of this variety to release their bright lemony scent. Leaves can be used raw, dried, or cooked for seasoning in any recipe.
Absolutely love lemon mint, it has already germinated and on its way to giving me some lemon mint.
I started this inside this spring and the germination rate was fantastic. I was hoping for a strong lemon scent but it smells and tastes like marjorahm. Will be planting it in the yard when temperatures rise a bit more.
I didn't use the leaves much, instead I let it flower and used it to attract pollinators, some of which were humming birds! Pictures of the flowers do not do it justice, they are absolutely beautiful and las a long time.
Just planting it today, adding to my mint collection. Will let you know how it does in Southwest Virginia. Can't wait to add it to some tea.
I love Lemon Mint, smells fabulous!

I wasn't sure it would survive when I planted it, but it is growing. Very happy with my purchase
I immediately set this plant outside to begin hardening off. After about 2 weeks, I planted it in it's dedicated grow bag until I get a more permanent planter, and I must say it is living life. It has grown so much since I received it. I believe I'm going to remove the blossoms this year to continue promoting healthy growth.
Love this. I collect stickers on my garden notebook for fun and inspiration and this spoke to me.
Very good seed potatoes, growing well
Plants arrived in great condition. One plant did not take and ended up dying. We ordered 10 bare root plants, but actually got 1 extra so even after one failed, we still ended up with 10 great looking plants.
