One of my favorites! I have the red variety here, and have a mixed color seed packet i didnt get around to planting this year. I love the flavor of the flowers and leaves in tea! If you're sick with any sort of sinus thing, tea with beebalm clears it out almost instantly, and keepy you clear while drinking the tea, and up to 15 mins after.
The plant tastes like oregano with a hint of an orange citrus taste.
