Lemongrass is one of the herbs many people don’t feel they can grow. However, lemongrass grows easily in containers or in-ground and will grow well even in places with shorter growing seasons. The plant is a tender perennial to zone 9. It can be cut and dried for teas, essential oil, or lemongrass soup. Leaves and stalk have a distinct but soft lemon flavor. Lemongrass essential oil is often used in cosmetics, body care, and aromatherapy. Leaves reach up to one meter long.

      I received some of these lemongrass seeds last year and they were very fun to grow. I kept several plants around my patio in pots to help keep the mosquitos away which worked well. There are many uses for lemongrass but I like to make tea using it and it tastes wonderful. As an added bonus my cats also love the lemongrass even better than catnip so I occasionally cut off small pieces to give to them to play with.

      Started indoors. Very prolific. I did had problem hardening as not that many plants made it. Thus, I recommend starting it outdoors in the forever spot.

      Unfortunately I had a few poor germination rate. Outdoor, indoor, i’ve tried it all with little succes

      I did not get great germination on this. The seedlings also didn’t survive, which is probably because I transplanted too late. I tried some seeds directly in the ground but they didn’t work at all. I’m going to try again and hope I get better results

      Had only 3 seeds succeed from my pack of 100 but once they got going I was able to break off and propagate more to create more plants as each plant becomes a big clump of plants. Fun and exotic to grow in my greenhouse in cold Canada.

      Great in the tea garden, repels pests, and apparently you can cook parts of it though I have not tried

      Great germination rate and delightful grass. Grew in a container and they did great, withstood some forgetfulness and dry-spells
