Lemon balm is very much beloved of herbalists. It has many uses. And the Salvia makes an excellent contrast with its big broad, hairy leaves and taller purple plumes. A favourite of mine for many years.

A very striking Salvia Karen! I too have Lemon balm, it makes a great tincture and tea. In fact I'm going to pick leaves for a tea, I've a racking cough at the moment!
