Ball Plant

Balm plant" generally refers to either lemon balm or bee balm, both of which are versatile herbs with culinary, medicinal, and aromatic uses. To use lemon balm, you can make soothing tea for digestion and stress, add fresh leaves to salads and desserts for a citrus flavor, or use it topically for insect bites and cold sores. For bee balm, you can also make tea or use petals as a garnish, but it's known for its antimicrobial properties, helping with infections, or as a poultice for burns and skin issues. How to Use Lemon Balm

    Steep fresh or dried, crushed leaves in hot water for 5-10 minutes to create a calming tea for anxiety, sleep, or an upset stomach. 
  • Culinary: 
  • Add chopped fresh leaves to salads, pesto, or fruit dishes for a lemony flavor. You can also infuse it into syrups or cocktails.
