How to Grow Lemongrass?
To grow lemongrass successfully, plant it in a location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily, ensuring optimal growth.

You can propagate lemongrass from store-bought stalks by placing them in water until roots form, and then transplant them into the ground.

Lemon grass came very quickly. Best delivery I have ever experienced ordering plants! Beautiful plants and I will definitely order from this plant shop again! I just repotted and waiting to see how it grows!
The plant is a good size and ships amazingly well. The seller was very gracious in delaying my delivery so it arrived close to my mother in law’s birthday. She absolutely loved.
Was beautiful, shipped quickly, and was packaged nicely. Too bad I killed it somehow lol I loved it
