Herb Lemon Grass is an aromatic herb from East India prized for its fresh lemony fragrance and distinctive citrusy flavor. These non-GMO, heirloom seeds produce tall, grass-like plants ideal for culinary applications—from soups and curries to teas and beverages. Our seeds are carefully cleaned to remove chaff and seed coat material, ensuring superior germination rates and vigorous seedling development. Each mature plant typically yields 6–12 harvestable stalks under optimal conditions, making this variety highly productive for home gardeners and small-scale growers. Lemon Grass prefers warm growing environments and well-draining soil; in suitable climates, it can be cultivated as a perennial. The fresh leaves and tender stalks deliver consistent flavor throughout the growing season, whether harvested fresh or dried for storage. This packet contains 25 seeds—sufficient for multiple plantings or sharing with fellow gardeners. Ideal for container growing in cooler regions or direct garden planting in warm zones.
