Anybody grow lemon balm before? Did yours have some pink leaves and

Yes I grow Lemon Balm, or rather, it grows itself. It's been over 10
years since I actually planted it, and it comes up someplace in the
garden every year.

I have never seen any pink on it at all, not on leaves nor stems.
Yes, it has a lemon flavor, but mostly a very distinct lemon odor when
the leaves are crushed (even when it's just a tiny seedling) That's
the
way I identify it early on. Very pleasant and fresh scent.
