Have you ever made Lemon Balm Pesto? These are the leaves you need for that recipe - the Lemon Balm or Lemon Mint plant. Commonly called by its Latin first name, Melissa (Greek for honeybee), its sweet citrusy lemon scent is often used in gardens to attract bees. It's a perfect tea herb to grow for steaming hot mugs or tall cold glasses of natural lemon-scented iced tea. Little sprigs make attractive, edible garnishes for fruit drinks and sherbets. It blends well with other herbs, adds a mild citrus tang to salads, and makes an excellent alternative to Spearmint. It is also frequently paired with fruit dishes or candies. It can be used in fish dishes. MEDICINAL USES: crushed leaves, when rubbed on the skin, are used as a repellant for mosquitos (the leaves contain Citronella). It is popular as a treatment for influenza, insomnia and nervous stomach. The Arabs introduced it as medicinal herb as a tea that was taken for anxiety and depression and lemonbalm is still known in France as a remedy for fatigue and headaches. The Greek physician Dioscorides wrote about it being used for scorpions stings and insect and dog bites.

Oregano (a close relative to sweet marjoram) is a hardy perennial herb. An important culinary herb, Oregano is used for the flavor of its leaves (more flavourful when dried than fresh). It has an aromatic, warm and slightly bitter taste, which can vary in intensity. Good quality oregano may be strong enough to almost numb the tongue. The herb is widely used in Italian, Turkish, Palestinian, Syrian, Greek, Portuguese, Spanish, Philippine and Latin American cuisines. I have a friend who swears by the goodness of garden oregano seeds improving the flavor of his hamburgers.

How about a sprig of mint in a hot drink? Sprigs of mint in a spring bouquet? Or even a few springs of mint left near a air conditioning outlet or in a bowl of hot water for just a hint of something in the air. I'll pick fresh from the garden 20 healthy springs (at least 8 inches long) of beautiful mint. The tops can be used for their beauty, and the bottoms can be used for fragrance. Mentha spicata (Spearmint - named for its pointed leaves) is a species of mint native to much of Europe and southwest Asia. Spearmint was revered by ancient Romans for its ability to "stir up the mind" and it is still used as a medicinal tea, fragrance and oil.
