Just be careful where you buy seeds from. I have ordered some lemongrass seeds on Amazon (before learning how to grow more from an adult plant). Those came from China, were seized by customs, sent to a lab, then promptly destroyed. I got a letter in the mail, with the results of the analysis.
There was no indication anywhere that they would come from overseas.
I shudder to think what would have happened if the supplier also sold something like marijuana and my packet was "contaminated".
- AareyBaba 7y agoLemon grass: go to your local asian market and get lemongrass stalks with the bottom bulb intact. It doesn't need to have roots showing. Place in a jar of water and they will sprout roots in a week or so. Then plant in a pot, it will grow into a big grassy plant.
- outworlder 7y ago> It doesn't need to have roots showing Oh wow, I thought it would be worthless without roots! The more you know... Thank you!
- AareyBaba 7y agoAs long as there is some woody material at the bottom it will work most of the time. So get a couple of stems in case a few don't root.
