Balm Mandarina

Balm Mandarina | Melissa officinalis 'Mandarina'. Not widely available this lovely from of balm has a strong orange fragrance rather than the powerful lemon of its cousin lemon balm. A slightly more shorter, arching and cascading habit it looks great in a hanging basket as it tumbles over. The leaves are also slightly softer. Lovely for teas, or add the leaves raw into salads. Nice in a cocktail too!
