In continuation of my earlier note on the subject, I like to add further varieties of Tea - 1) LEMON BALM - People have valued Lemon Balm for its calming properties for centuries. It can also help relieve headaches and lower blood pressure. Lemon Balm can be grown from a root clump and is best transferred from early spring to early summer. Start seedlings safely indoors late in the winter and set them out in the spring. While Lemon Balm grows easily in most places, it tends to spread. It grows best in rich, well- drained soil and full sun. Its leaves are best when harvested just as flowers are beginning to bloom. For tea, steep a few fresh leaves in boiling water for two to five minutes. 2) ECHINACEA - It has Antiviral and Antibacterial properties, which makes it great for helping to combat clods and sore throats. The whole Echinacea plant, from its purple cone flowers to its roots, can be used in the tinctures and teas. Start with a plant from nursery or sow seeds indoors in
