The seeds do take time for germination. I was advised to sow the entire packet early spring, in a plastic gallon milk carton. Around 18 days later some sprouts began to appear. Transplanted later in containers and in ground. I will note that for my zone 10a, the leaves grew taller in the ground (just over 4 feet) than in a 10 gallon container (just under 2.75 feet). They have nice stalks that are half inch in size at the top, to one inch at the bottom, the leaves do brown more with our Texas afternoon sun, nothing a little shade cloth can't help. Easy to maintain, divide and re-plant for never ending harvests.

These are the best seeds! I've tried for many years to grow lemon grass from seed and have never been successful. This year I was determined to try again and I am so glad I did! I am now the proud plant Mom to a 4 foot tall beauty!

This grew so fast! And that's wonderful!

Will see the east side apartment window growth results. Came on time. Number of seeds is as stated. Overall happy with experience.
