Lemon Mint Monarda Citriodora is an annual herbaceous wildflower native to the United States. Lemon Mint bulk seeds are very cost-effective way to grow the Monarda Citriodora herb if the mass planting is required. Also commonly known as Lemon Beebalm, Lemon Horsemint, Plains Horsemint, Lemon Bee Balm, Lemon Bergamot, and Purple Horse Mint, this annual flowering herb features attractive foliage with square, stiff flowering stems that support columns of lemon scented, tubular, pink, lavender flowers. Lemon Bee Balm blooms all summer long attracting bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies.
