I love lemongrass and decided to let a few of my plants go to seed. It's very beneficial to combat whitefly, aphids and spider mites. U can cut the grass and get a very lemony scent. The blades are somewhat sharp so be careful when pruning. I cut it back several times a year and it comes right back bigger and better. U can also boil the grass blades and make a nice lemon tea. I have seeds if anyone would like to grow this plant. Plant grows best in full sun in zones 11 to 13 but can be overwintered in a greenhouse or basement. Plant will grow over 8 ft and wide as well but you can prune it to keep it the size you want. Send me a SASE for the seeds. Very easy to grow just like most grass seeds. No trade needed.

Hello Gardenboy! I have tried to grow this in zone 7b, Southern Delaware without much success. I used coconut coir and perlite as a medium but never got to the point of feeling they were ready to transplant. Maybe it was something I was doing wrong. Is this offer still available as I would like to try again. Thank you and have a Very Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!
