Lemongrass is a fragrant perennial plant that thrives in warm climates and offers a lemony flavoring to dishes. Lemongrass can grow up to 5 feet tall, either planted in pots and kept indoors in cooler climates or grown outdoors in subtropical or tropical regions.

Customers have negative opinions about the germination and value of the plant seeds. They mention that the seeds didn't sprout at all and are disappointed.
I have purchased these seeds twice. The first time I tried multiple times to germinate. Soaked the seeds in water, didn’t soak them in water. Not a single seed sprouted! I did 10 pods in my seed tray both times. Second time I bought more seeds I filled a 72 pod tray multiple seeds in each pod and not one single seed sprouted. Don’t waste your money!
Never ever order this lemon grass seeds from this company! I ordered 4 packs of seeds 200 seeds in each pack for my friends and myself. I got one small plastic bag with seeds directly from China, ( not from Russia as it was on the page), of course I did not count them but it looked not presentable. I planted seeds into special containers to sprout but ONLY 8 (eight!) germinated from 800 seeds! and they are very little now, so I am not sure that they will survive. I very recommend 鶹 to stop having any contracts with this company.
