Lemongrass Plants For Sale

Lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) is an aromatic herb well-loved among gardeners and cooks. At The Growers Exchange, we take pride in providing top-quality lemongrass plants for sale. Like all our other herbs, our lemongrass plants are grown carefully and according to environmentally responsible and sustainable practices. 


Our lemongrass plants are the perfect choice for anyone looking to cultivate a culinary herb that adds fragrance to their garden and flavor to their meals. Explore the unique qualities of lemongrass below and discover why it deserves a spot in your garden.


What Is the Lemongrass Plant?

The lemongrass plant is a tropical herb native to Southeast Asia, specifically Sri Lanka, Burma, and Thailand. This perennial grass is prized for its essential oils and is a key ingredient in many Asian dishes, teas, and natural remedies. It is also called East Indian lemongrass, Cochin grass, and Malabar grass.


Lemongrass's clumping growth habit and tall, slender leaves add a touch of elegance to any garden. Its strong lemon scent keeps your outdoor space smelling fresh and inviting. Lemongrass plants are also easy to grow and care for, making them suitable for beginners and experienced gardeners alike. 

Lemongrass Plant Appearance and Characteristics

Lemongrass plants are characterized by their striking appearance. They have tall, arching stalks that can reach up to four feet in height. The plant’s overall growth pattern is dense and upright, making it an attractive border plant or a statement piece in a mixed herb garden. Their leaves are long, narrow, and rough, with a vibrant green color that stands out in any garden setting. 


Lemongrass is named for its lemon-like aroma: when crushed or cut, the leaves release an invigorating citrusy scent. While its fragrance is pleasant to humans, it repels deer, making it ideal for those who want to make their gardens deer-resistant. 


The base of the plant forms a bulbous structure that resembles a scallion, and this part is commonly used in cooking to infuse dishes with its distinctive citrus flavor.


Lemongrass Plant: Origins and History

Lemongrass has a rich history rooted in the tropical regions of Southeast Asia, where it has been cultivated for centuries. It is used to season many Vietnamese, Thai, Malaysian, Indonesian, and Filipino dishes. Traditionally, it was used not only as a culinary herb but also as a medicinal one. It was believed to aid digestion, reduce inflammation, and relieve stress. 


Over time, lemongrass plants spread to other parts of the world, becoming popular in various cuisines and herbal remedies. Today, lemongrass is widely grown in tropical and subtropical climates and has become a staple in gardens and kitchens worldwide. 


How To Grow Lemongrass: Plant Care Basics

Growing lemongrass is relatively simple. It does well planted outside or indoors in a container. With a few basic care tips, your lemongrass plants are sure to flourish:


  • Light: Lemongrass requires full sun to grow well. Ensure it receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight each day. If you’re growing it indoors, make sure to place it in a sunny spot.

  • Temperature: Because it is a tropical plant, lemongrass thrives in warm temperatures. It is hardy at USDA zones 9 to 11. It can tolerate occasional dips in temperature but should be protected from frost.

  • Soil: Plant your lemongrass plants in well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH, ideally between 6.0 and 7.0.

  • Watering: Like most herbs, it doesn't need excessive watering. Water when needed, particularly during dry spells, to keep the plant healthy and vigorous.

  • Fertilizing: Lemongrass is a heavy feeder that benefits from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer every four to six weeks during the growing season.

  • Pruning: Regularly trim the leaves to encourage new growth and prevent the plant from becoming too leggy. Harvest the stalks and leaves as needed for culinary use.


Uses and Benefits of Lemongrass

Lemongrass is cherished for its wide range of uses in the kitchen and beyond. The stalks and leaves are commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine, adding a zesty, lemony flavor to soups, curries, roasted chicken, and marinades. 


Lemongrass is also a popular ingredient in teas and herbal infusions, thanks to its refreshing taste and calming properties. In addition to its culinary applications, lemongrass is valued for its medicinal benefits. It has been used traditionally to treat digestive issues, relieve headaches, and reduce stress. The essential oil extracted from lemongrass plants is often used in aromatherapy and natural insect repellents.

Anything from Skip I will read ASAP.
Format: Hardcover
I so look forward to reading this. Skip Atwater is a pioneer in the exploration of consciousness. I had the pleasure of meeting him for an interview while making my film Third Eye Spies and his knowledge of remote viewing and the Army history of the subject was some of the most compelling testimony I heard. I am excited to get my copy of this new book.

Glorious book on Man's (unfortunate) wars with himself
Format: Hardcover
If you have any interest in the subject matter, buy this book, it is fantastic. Many beautiful paintings and maps, some on full pages. One comment. In various parts of this book it has something called "Directory," which is just paragraphs on events that the writer did not see deserving a full page in the book. On page 42 we have "Directory: Before 1000 CE," and included is a paragraph on "Teutoburg Forest, Roman-Germanic Wars, 9 CE" The paragraph ends with: "Although there were subsequent expeditions to Germany, the Roman frontier became fixed at the Rhine (River)." Surely, this is one of the greatest battles and results in European history and should have had a full two pages in this book instead of just a short paragraph. See the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, 9 CE. Another short fall of this book is no mention of Boudica, who in AD 60 0r 61, was defeated by the Romans (commander- Suetonius Paullinus), who went on to "rule" England and Wales to about AD 410. This is my review of Graham Webster's book "Boudica: The British revolt against Rome in AD 60: Lucid, well written on Boudica, queen of the East Anglian kingdom of the Iceni tribe, and much more. Sixteen pages of black and white photographs. Contents (all of these Chapter headings have sub-headings)1. Sources 2. The Opposing Forces and the State of Britain 54 B.C. 3. Britain between the Invasions 54 B.C.-A.D. 43 4. The Conquest of A.D. 43 5. The Storm Breaks A.D. 60 6. The Evidence from the Ground 7. The Trail of Destruction Epilogue References Bibliography Glossary of Latin Terms and Words Index 24 Plates 8 Maps and Diagrams The Epilogue, a timeless piece of writing, should be read by everyone, young and old. The last sentence of the book in the Epilogue reads: "They may help us to see more clearly what is happening in the world today, and even help us prevent some of the worst excesses of human folly and greed for power, which brings incalculable misery and suffering to the innocent majority." Re: Boudica and the final battle with Suetonius Paullinus and the approximately 12,000 men under his command and Boudica's warriors, which could have been as great as 100,000, page 99, (but could be less); we apply "O2S4 MEC:" Objective (Simplicity); Offensive, Sprit of; Superiority at Point of Contact (Economy of Force); Surprise (Security); Security (Surprise); Simplicity (Objective); Movement (Mobility); Economy of Force (Superiority at Point of Contact); Cooperation (Unity of Command) On pages 98-99 in the book we have Fig. 5-, (if this is indeed the place of the final battle took place) "The battle between Boudica and Paullinus in its possible Mancetter context," it is clear that Paullinus had chosen the place of the battle and his position to force Boudica's warriors to a frontal attack and thereby creating "Superiority at Point of Contact." And this is probably what happened, as Boudica's warriors attacked and were funneled into the Roman Legion "buzz saw" due to their "simple" frontal attack. From Fig. 5 again, it is clear that there was forest behind Paullinus and his men and the River Anker in front of them. I do not know if it would have possible to attack Paullinus from the rear by going through the forest. However, again from Fig. 5, it is apparent that Boudica's warriors probably could have attacked Paullinus from the right and left flanks (even though the Roman cavalry was on both flanks), creating a three pronged attack, negating some of the Roman's "Superiority at Point of Contact." It is clear that Boudica lost "Cooperation (Unity of Command)," or never had it in the first place, leading to the rout by Paullinus' much smaller force over a much larger force and the fate of Britain for about the next 400 years. The Roman brutality that caused this uprising and Boudica's, and her warriors response, are part of history. Paullius' (whatever you think of him), choice of the battlefield was tactically brilliant, and no one, including Boudica, could match it on the field of battle that day.

Poor formatting for Kindle, GREAT as a hardback
Format: Kindle
So far I am loving this book, and hating its formatting for the Kindle. Probably because of all the maps and illustrations, it is hard to enjoy on my Kindle, and I have to awkwardly change the size of the page 3-4 times on every page while I try to read it. My guess is I would really love it as a physical book. LATER: As noted I was very disappointed trying to read this on a small Kindle, but the book looked so promising that I repurchased it in hardback. WOW what a difference. Wonderful illustrations, maps, the works. Given the number of important battles chosen, it would not be possible to go into great detail on any single one, but most people are not going to remember all those details anyway, and this book gives you what you really need, and the level of detail you are likely to remember and to help you appreciate the importance of the event. Strongly recommended in hardback.
