This is my 2nd time ever trying to grow any kind of plants. I planted what I thought was lemon balm and dill seeds. Last night I was looking up groth stages of lemon balm and realized my plants look nothing like lemon balm. The seed packet I got also has seeds for sweet dani basil, and after looking at those I'm thinking that's what these are. I'm just wondering if maybe someone here might know and be able to tell me?

I don't know if I planted to wrong seed twice in a row because I have 2 going that are the same that I started at separate times, or if they put the wrong seeds in the packet because I really don't think these are lemon balm.

Yup - definitely not lemon balm, and sure looks like lemon basil.

Awesome thanks, Still pretty neat I guess. Maybe next time I'll try with the other seed packet and see what happens lol.
