Description
The lemongrass plant is a tall, perennial grass native to tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, Africa, and Australia. It is known for its long, slender leaves that can grow up to three feet tall. The leaves have a strong lemon scent due to the presence of citral, an essential oil.
Lemongrass is widely used in cooking, particularly in Asian cuisines, for its lemony flavor. It is also used in herbal teas, essential oils, and traditional medicine for its purported health benefits, including its antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. The plant thrives in warm, sunny environments and requires well-drained soil.
Care Instructions:
- Planting: Plant in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Space plants about 24 inches apart to allow for growth.
- Watering: Water regularly but allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Harvesting: Harvest leaves as needed by cutting them close to the base. Use fresh or dry them for later use.
- Maintenance: Trim back dead or yellowing leaves to encourage new growth. In cooler climates, bring plants indoors or grow them in pots to protect them from frost.
