Unique lavender blooms and fragrant silvery-green foliage taste as good as they look, adding delicious flavor to meals and drinks.

Traditionally used by Native Americans to soothe bronchial complaints, digestive issues, and colds, Bee Balm tea tastes similar to Earl Gray. The multi-purpose plant looks gorgeous growing in herb gardens, raised beds, or containers. Sprinkle the edible flower petals on salads or use the leaves in place of oregano.
