Description
Lemon Bergamot, also known as Lemon Beebalm, is a fragrant, pollinator-friendly annual featuring striking tiered whorls of lavender-pink flowers held above citrus-scented foliage. Producing a distinct lemon-herb scent when crushed, its leaves are widely enjoyed for herbal teas, garnishes, and potpourri. It thrives in sunny gardens, adding vertical height to wildflower borders while attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds all summer long.
