Hello, I have a beautiful Lemon Balm plant in a large container. I was wondering if I could leave it where it is or do I need to bring it inside for the winter? I have taken some of the leaves off and I cleaned them and I will be drying them to use as tea. I read that it helps with relaxation. I love the smell.

My basil plant is not doing very well so I thought I would just leave it outside.

It grows like wildfire at home. It has pretty much taken over my herb garden...no time to work at controlling it right now. It comes back from Missouri winters without a problem. I would suggest keeping in that pot!

Paula, thanks and yes it has just gone crazy where I put it in the pot. I guess it like it there. I cut a lot off and I am drying it today. Thanks for the heads up on putting it in the ground. I am hoping I can start my herb garden this coming yr.
