Lemon Bee Balm Seeds
Start Lemon Bee Balm seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost date, or direct-seed outdoors after the risk of frost has passed.
Press seeds lightly into the soil and do not cover, as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 10-15 days.
After your last frost date, transplant seedlings to a sunny location with well-draining soil, spacing plants 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart. Lemon Bee Balm is drought-tolerant once established and thrives with minimal care, making it a perfect addition to low-maintenance gardens.
